Petrichor.

Petrichor is the central sculpture in the Amber Memorial Garden, commissioned by Amber Crisis Pregnancy Care and located in Chislehurst Cemetery. This is a living sculpture designed to channel rain and nurture jasmine vines that will gradually grow and weave around its form. The garden is planted so that nothing lies fallow, with ornamental grasses and seasonal blooms creating a peaceful environment for reflection and pause. The installation invites contemplation of life, memory, and renewal.
