Infinity Bench是为智利南部康塞普西翁Enrique Molina Garmendia学校的Alejandro Merino植物园开发的装置。它的目标是对这个空间进行重新评估和修复，直到现在，这个空间还只是一个象征性的城市建筑的前花园。

Infinity Bench is an installation developed for the Alejandro Merino Botanical Garden at the Enrique Molina Garmendia School in Concepción, in the south of Chile. Its goal is the reappraisal and restoration of this space, consigned until now, to just being a generous front garden of an emblematic city building.

由于从街道上就能看到它，所以它的规模和它在城市密集区的树木规模广为人知，就像被困在大都市中的一个小森林。

Since it can be seen from the street, it is widely known for its scale and the size of the trees it harbors in a dense area of the city, appearing as a small forest trapped inside the metropolis.

植物园沿着Anibal Pinto街，就在康塞普西翁的中心地带，距离厄瓜多尔公园（Ecuador Park）只有几米远，这是康塞普西翁最重要的绿地之一。那里只有一条蜿蜒的小路，以一种对角线的形式将花园分成两部分，从那里可以看到不同时间种植的不同灌木和树种，而且没有明确的组织。这样一来，花园就只是变成了一个中转区，对于沿着现有小路走的学生和老师来说，或者对于沿街行走的人来说，都是一个美丽的背景，会被装置吸引过去。

The Botanical Garden runs along Anibal Pinto street, right in the heart of Concepción, just a few meters from Ecuador Park, one of the city’s most important green areas. There is only a winding path there, which in a kind of diagonal divides the garden into two, from where it is possible to see different bush and tree species planted at different times and with no clear organization. This turns the garden into just a transit area for students and teachers who follow the existing path, or for those walking along the street, a beautiful backdrop that breaks up their journey.

园内以22x47米的长方形铺设，随意摆放的树木约60棵。在修复时，在记录了高中生群体中的怀旧情结和可能的用途后，建议在花园中建造一个连续的圆形长椅，直径约14米，由67个木质模块系统性地重复形成，只被现有的小路打断，小心翼翼地放置在树木之间，在景观中创造一个新的教室，使这里宝贵的自然遗产不被改变。

The garden is laid in a 22x47 meter rectangle, with around 60 randomly placed trees. For the restoration, after recording the nostalgia and possible uses among the high school community, a continuous circular bench was proposed for the garden, some 14 meters in diameter, formed by a systematic repetition of 67 wooden modules, that is only broken by the existing path, placed carefully between the trees to create a new classroom amid the landscape, leaving the valuable natural heritage of the place unaltered.

预计课堂、研讨会和学生聚会将在这里举行，将其重新融入学校的日常生活，并将其变成一个标志性的物品，使这个花园在当地 "Penquista"（对居住在康塞普西翁市的人的称呼）社区中可见。

It is expected that classes, workshops and student gatherings take place there, reintegrating it into the school’s daily life and turning it into an iconic object, making this garden visible within the local “Penquista” (name given to people living in the city of Concepción) community.
