How the Water Becomes Wood

A chart that expects to be revised.

  1. ChartThe water's shape comes from its bathymetric chart.
  2. CutThe shoreline is laser-cut from birch and mounted over natural cork.
  3. EtchDepth contours mark the cork, with landmarks engraved around the water.
  4. PinFavorite spots, moorings, and trips go in wherever the story goes next, inside a solid wood frame.

A Salish Sea cork map, 10 by 8 inches: the inland sea laser-cut in birch over an etched natural cork face, framed in solid wood and ready for pins.

The Salish Sea is a life list disguised as a body of water, and the cork keeps the tally: pin the first orca sighting, the Gulf Islands sail, the winter storm-watching weekend, the ferry route you finally completed. Engraved landmarks hold the bearings across two countries of coastline.

Desk-sized ambition for a sea that rewards it.

The full sea in carved relief hangs as the Salish Sea 3D chart.
