"Sprout Bench" embodies the concept of growth and transformation, inspired by the life cycles of trees and seeds. The sculpture merges functional seating with artistic form, inviting visitors to pause and reflect. Its vertical shape draws on the forms of both young saplings and mature trees, while the domed base represents balance and harmony within nature. Intentionally positioned between a park and cemetery, the sculpture encourages contemplation of life’s ongoing cycles—birth, growth, and renewal.
