Marin Headlands is like a hidden treasure that I found in my backyard, surrounding or inside of some ordinary objects. The place is full of different terrains, and it’s possible to see them from just one spot. When I stand in one place and look around, the previous image always appears in my head, because the view from one side might be totally different from the other side and they all happen in a few seconds. They all stored in my temporary memory.
This overlaying scene in certain environment is the main concept of my final project. The project is focusing on combining different terrains and objects in the Marin Headlands to represent a traveler’s vision while they are walking there. I intend to overlaying exist scenes to create a scene that doesn’t exit but fully relate to the Marin Headlands. The structure is a wooden box containing layers of transparency images along with a light box on the back. These images inside the structure were captured in the Marin Headland during the past few weeks. The function of these slidable images is to create various possible scenes that relates to the place. People can slide them together to create their own version of the Marin Headlands scene like they are actually in the place.
