Project Brief
The City of Kent Parks Department recently opened Kherson Park, a newly renovated, space-themed park honoring the creation of the Apollo Lunar Rovers at the nearby Boeing plant. The park design features play structures that are life-sized replicas of a Lunar Rover, an astronaut suit, a Lunar Lander and a Mission Control console, and a large wall with projection capabilities. The Arts Commission called for digital/video media artists to provide short (< 5 minute) films to be showcased on the projection wall in the evenings.
proposal
In my entry for the project, I proposed a fictionalized history of the rover, where kids who watched a science fiction film at the local, now-defunct Midway Drive-In were inspired to pursue careers in aerospace. Their monumental achievements in space are then commemorated in this park, where the play structures and summer movie nights inspire a new generation.
The title "Exit 152 to the Moon" refers to the freeway exit from Interstate 5 to Boeing's Kent Space Center.
