Abstract:
Set in industrial Silverton, this project deals with the mediation between nature and industry through the lens of liminality. The site for this investigation is the Silverton Cemetery, connected to the Moreleta Spruit. With access to both natural and industrial processes on the site, a re-alignment of industrial process towards natural processes is proposed. The Silverton Cemetery is to be redeveloped with a resomation route reconnecting the cemetery with the spruit and the re-introduction of the historical leather dyeing process.
