North Sea Experience

North Sea Experience

A site specific work that is centered around the Pier in Scheveningen, The Netherlands. Why can’t we experience the sea by visually going in it? The Boulevard in Scheveningen has a seaquarium that teaches and shows people the animal and plant life of seas. The problem I have established is that there is no real experience of the North Sea available at the Pier, Boulevard or Sea Life. The animals and display at Sea Life is not a representation of the North Sea. To accomplish the experience and possibly create an addition to the current Sea Life I came up with a tunnel that leads people into the sea. To enter people will have to pass through a funnel like when fish are being caught. At the end of the tunnel, which is the length of the Pier, there is an opening in the roof of the tunnel to the outside world. Here people are able to look into the sky from the sea and see the birds fly over.
