Tall Tree & The Eye, Stainless steel sculpture at Guggenheim Museum, Bilbao, Spain.

The installation consists of seventy-three reflective stainless steel spheres arranged on three axes, creating multiple reflections of the surroundings.

Indian artist Anish Kapoor created this sculpture in 2009, which became part of the permanent collection of the Guggenheim Museum Bilbao.

The sculpture represents mathematical principles through its arrangement of spheres, examining the relationship between objects and their environment.

The structure measures 1297 centimeters in height and 442 centimeters in width, standing near the northern pond of the museum.

Each steel sphere functions as an individual mirror, capturing and transforming images of the city, river, and neighboring artworks.
