About the art
Artist statement
A cluster of seeds serves as a symbol of abundance, with each seed conveying the concept that nature's bounty is ever-present, as each tiny seed has the potential to sprout and yield a rich harvest, reflecting the interconnectedness of life and the promise of prosperity.
It is locally known as 'Kelumpang Burung' because birds love to eat its fruit. It is native to Southeast Asia, where it grows in lowland and hill forests.
