Diplomprosjekt
Institutt for urbanisme og landskap
This project is about an unknown field and an intervention with a balloon. It starts with a fascination with the mystery and darkness of the fjord, and with rethinking the public’s notion of hydro-space. From the cultural-historical perspective, a question about how we shape the fjord, and how it shapes us, starts to arise.
We only know what we see, and we tend to only see what we know. A new description of the fjord is critical, but we cannot rely only on scientific exploration. We need to also explore the subjective, the imaginary, to understand what is at stake. The cruise ship will act as a site, the passengers as audience. The design is a surface, a space and an event on the roof deck. It becomes a laboratory of the imaginary, where ideas are planted and projected.
