The sculpture functions like a bench or symbolic furniture, far in a public space. lt explores the experience of traveling and the emigration situation. When the spectator or common people sit on the piece, they look like travelers or emigrants; and when they leave the bench, that action symbolizes the behavior of somebody that is metaphorically leaving luggage and memories behind. The weight of the piece (solid concrete) also emphasizes the meaning of it.
