In China, historical monuments are often presented in an iconic manner, frequently overlooking the natural environment and leading to waste and destruction. A meaningful memorial landscape should not only commemorate historical events but also provide a spiritual and interactive experience for visitors.
This project embraces the concept of dematerialization in architecture, integrating ecological function with memorial purpose to create a more holistic space. By utilizing inexpensive local materials, the installation addresses soil erosion and agricultural non-point source pollution. Monumentality is expressed through points, paths, and colors, capturing the footprints of revolutionaries. Visitors can engage with the site on a larger scale, following historical clues and connecting with the events in a more immersive and interactive way.
