Flower Tree, Contemporary sculpture in Place Antonin Poncet, Lyon, France
The Flower Tree consists of 85 plastic flowers in the size of car doors, forming a steel structure that reaches 6 meters in height.
The sculpture was initially displayed during the 2003 Lyon Biennial Contemporary Art Festival before becoming a permanent installation in 2007 following public demand.
This metal flower installation represents the integration of modern Asian artistic expression within the classical European architectural landscape of central Lyon.
The sculpture stands on the eastern side of Place Antonin Poncet, accessible via Metro lines A and D at Bellecour station throughout the year.
Each of the 85 flowers features a durable polyester resin coating that maintains its color intensity regardless of weather conditions.
