Polychrome wire, flamboyan tree pods, steel and copper base.

I brought the pods of the flamboyan tree from Cuba a few years ago. They symbolize the fragile boats that the Cubans used to help themselves. Action became universal and hundreds of refugees experience unfortunately risky situations. Will they integrate into their new destinations?
