The lunar maria (mare)are large, dark, basaltic plains on Earth’s Moon, formed by ancient volcanic eruptions. Early astronomer found it on the moon, thought that it was the ocean on the moon. Coastline is a connection between land and ocean, the shape of coastline was affected by tides, and tides effected by the moon.



In China, people use moon and ocean to express the emotion of homesick. Therefore, I choose the conception of Lunar Mare to represent my work. I grew up in the coastal region of China, coastline make me feel safe wherever I am, coastline is my everyday life. As time goes by, coastline changed, the shape of coastline is the trace of time.



In this installation, left side is stones from coastline, the right side is seascape of coastline. The image will be eroded while watching it, as shape of coastline, these images will be eroded by the time.
