Biomaterials combined with seawater collected from tourist coastal sites form fragile, semi-translucent structures that register speculative shoreline conditions shaped by tourism infrastructure and ecological pressure. Shell imprints, organic traces and fragments of found
metal debris become embedded within the material, which gradually shrinks, cracks and deforms as it dries.
Discarded straps, buckles and bio-textiles appear as residues of seasonal occupation. Through ongoing transformation, the work approaches the beach as an unstable landscape where material, body and infrastructure continuously overlap, revealing the ecological traces and embodied experiences produced by tourism.
