This sculpture is a three-dimensional representation of many concepts, a gathering of symbols in the shape of a circular bench. The structure is built out of iron and it has elegantly endured time, evoking an autumn warmth through the red and brown hues of the rust that hugs it. Its surface is elevated 45 centimeters from the ground where it is rooted, and surrounded by a stone pedestal. Around the nuclear structure there are five spermatozoa carved into the soil that delimit the space where flowers grow. In the center of the circle stands the apple tree, ruler of its queendom, with deceptive fragility and sinuous sensuality.
