Description
The Seattle Times and the Seattle Post-Intelligencer said the work is multifaceted and interactive, respectively.[3][4] According to The Stranger, "The piece consists of cast concrete benches, a sidewalk-like pathway, a small, circular reflecting pool, and a double-trunked crabapple tree that spell out the words 'love' and 'loss.' Jutting up from the middle is a red neon ampersand."[5] The ampersand revolves.[6]
Brangien Davis of Crosscut.com described the artwork as a "sculpture slash word puzzle".[7]
