Growing Seeds

I have given simple forms to many of the flowers and plants that can be found at Dadaepo Beach. The flowers and plants loaded in a boat are collected in a cluster, redolent of a small community in our society. The seeds that sprout and rely on one another on the rocky boat represent the citizens of Busan whereas the plants boasting beautiful forms symbolize hope for the upcoming harvest.
