Dead Horse Bay becomes an archeological site to extract historic artifacts from a landfill by leveraging existing paths, the eagerness of scavengers to find valuable relics of the past, the expertise of archeologists to classify objects according to inherent value to human history and the ability of park rangers to guide the project through safe and responsible public involvement. Biogenic and upcycled construction materials such as glass aggregates on concrete, glass bottles as a translucent roof, earth tyre walls, Glulam superstructures, wood stilts on sandy soil and waste to soil walls compacted between translucent wood panels will create a gradient between permanence and impermanence in a forgotten edgeland.
