PARC FONTAINE-
DE-VAUCLUSE

Found object, fake object

This project creates a theme park out of a town in Southern France by the same name. Inspired by the town's inherent theme park qualities, such as a hub and spoke layout, the project sprung from a curiosity over the inhabitants and their lives, and the subsequent creation of a backstory. The town, which draws tourists for its crystal-clear mountain spring water, is depicted in watercolor alongside artifacts made to reflect the past of a fictional theme park. The project employs elements of symbolism with the rock and string representing the mountain source and the water, connecting to the drawings and artifacts like the idea that inspired them. Park guests are drawn on Plexiglas, representative of the water's surface, so that their shadows fall onto the drawings, becoming characters in the story that are distanced from the place itself.
