Knowledge Sprouts represents the vital power of scientific findings to deepen our knowledge of natural phenomena. Anchored in text to reflect peer reviewed work in print, the foundation of scientific endeavour, the work is created from hot glass, kiln formed to take on the swaying form of Posidonia oceanica, the lungs of the Mediterranean, the oldest living organism on earth and most important and well-studied seagrass species of the Mediterranean Sea.
