Amidst the rising petrochemical industries in Rayong, Thailand, the exploitation of heavy metal substances had influenced a new underground invisible environment: the Aquifer, questioning confinement strategies on the landscape, and proposing a network of systems that responds constantly to seasonalities and fluctuations. The project imagines a plausible future cohabitation between the interrelated scales of humans and microorganisms, performing two main complementary strategies to Metabolise and Visualise this “guilty” landscape, through a series of Inter-surface Artifacts. Rethinking the notion of natural preservation, a repetition of cycles and patterns of dynamic and temporal reclamations would emerge, adaptable to seasons and anomalies. The project was developed within the context of the Chulalongkorn University.
