This project supposes that Alcatraz Island in the Bay Area has become a cemetery. A specific ferry terminal is required for people to board the ferry to Alcatraz. This terminal can be the site for a church. People come here to start a journey with life-and-death and remember the who lives in their memory. This church is a concrete shell with its bottom open to the water. The reflection of the natural light on the water will flash in the dim interior.

​

Two floating wood boats follow the tide rise and fall in the interior, which symbolizes lifetime. The wall attached to the exterior pathway is made of translucent concrete. When visitors walk along this pathway, the moving shadow of their movement will be seen in the interior. It looks like a silent shadow film which stands for the soul and spirit of the deceased. It connects the real world and illusory world in people's hearts.
