Summary from English Wikipedia (enwiki)

Traffic Light Tree is a public sculpture in Blackwall, London, England, created by the French sculptor Pierre Vivant following a competition run by the Public Art Commissions Agency for the London Docklands Development Corporation under their Public Art programme.

Summary from Français / French Wikipedia (frwiki)

Traffic Light Tree est une sculpture de l'artiste français Pierre Vivant située à Londres sur le rond-point de Canary Wharf. Depuis 2014, elle remplace un platane qui a succombé à la pollution de l'air. De 8 mètres de haut, elle est constituée de 75 feux tricolores qui s'allument de manière aléatoire qui symbolisent l'agitation de Canary Wharf et du monde financier,.

Summary from Deutsch / German Wikipedia (dewiki)
