位于Sophienholm Kunsthal艺术中心栗树小径尽头的雕塑Exofruit是由艺术家兼建筑师Simon Hjermind Jensen创作。雕塑采用了他独特的建造技术，运用巧妙的曲线与形式得以支撑。

Exofruit, the sculpture at the end of the chestnut pathway at Sophienholm Kunsthal is created by Simon Hjermind Jensen, artist and architect. It is built with his unique construction technique, where curves and patterns create the supporting principle.

Exofrugt的创作艺术化呈现了七片栗树叶缝合在一起并被塞满后的形状和图案。Hjermind Jensen自己说：”在建筑与艺术的世界里，我通过对植物的迷恋寻找自我。对我来说，将水果视为建筑容器是十分合理的。毕竟，种子是果实的核心，而果实则是种子的保护壳，里面含有种子发芽时所需要的营养。同样，房子可以为我们的成长提供一个安全的环境，当一天结束，我们需要休息和能滋养我们的环境时，我们也会回到房子里”。

Exofrugt is created as an artistic rendering of the shape and pattern that appears when seven leaves from a chestnut tree are sewn together and stuffed. Hjermind Jensen himself says: “I find myself in the world of architecture and art with a great fascination for plants. For me, it is obvious to see a fruit as an architectural container. After all, seeds are the core of fruits, and the fruit is the protective shell that contains nutrition for the seed, which it uses during germination. In the same way, houses can form a safe environment for us to grow up, houses, to which we also return to as adults when the day is over and we need rest and a nurturing environment”.

在Sophienholm，”Exofruit “就像从地里长出来—光带就像生命的藤蔓，用大地的能量创造了外壳。这些光带一直延伸到雕塑中，模仿栗子叶的茎干，这些茎干被填充并缝合在一起。就这样，雕塑在我们这些观看者的大脑和心灵中播下了新的种子。

At Sophienholm Exofruit lies as if it had grown out of the ground – with bands of light like a life-giving liana that create the shell with the earth’s energy. The bands of light continue into the sculpture and mimic the stems from the stuffed and stitched together chestnut leaves. And so, the sculpture throws off new seeds in the brain and heart of those of us who watch.

Simon Hjermind Jensen is educated as an architect and in his practice he is concerned with a big question: in the future, can we collaborate with plants in such a way that we can grow our architecture?
