A national archive will be created, forming a repository of drawings, associated documents and records. Located within or adjacent to a Brown landscape the proposal will also form a threshold for the first hand appreciation of his work. Secondly, a series of land art workshops will be created, emerging the characteristic of the landscape. Education and training for the next generation can be achieved by the workshops . The public can have an opportunity to join the making process of the land arts with artists as a learning tool for them to learn how to appreciate the landscape . Landscape become a display area for the land arts. a poetic layer of the landscape will be created through the works.
