Traces










Coit tower not only offers a 360 degree view of San Francisco, but the characteristics of any tourist attraction, that is, the trace of the tourist themselves.

Fascinations with the preservation of oneself is seen through various leftovers, slotted past the plastic, resting on windowsills.

These tiny memoirs were more exciting to me than the view. Acting as advertisements, reaching out to strangers...also interesting to see the 'luckycoin-in-pond' being adapted to suit this environment.

I couldn't help but leave a trace of myself. A private joke on a fast food receipt, for the rest of the visitors to Coit Tower to see.
