The site was a historic three-story Net Shed perched above the Columbia River, formerly used for net making and repairing. Each of the structure’s three floor levels is penetrated by seven existing floor hatch locations spread uniformly throughout the building, which were used to drag fishing nets vertically between the three levels. To encourage viewers to explore the entirety of the Net Shed, a series of seven installations were proposed. Each floor hatch was filled with monofilament fishing line stretched taut from the first floor to the underside of the roof structure, resulting in the creation of seven new ‘columns’.
