Salmon Boat Pilot House—Relocation/Absorption
2008–Present | San Rafael, California USA
Self-initiated spatial intervention
Salmon Boat Pilot House documents how displaced commercial fishing infrastructure is gradually absorbed into evolving landscape systems. A salvaged pilot house from a salmon fishing vessel is relocated onto land, where surrounding vegetation, seasonal cycles, and environmental conditions progressively transform it from functional artifact into embedded ecological remnant.
