Be confused by the Traffic Light Tree

Oh look...someone has created something vaguely interesting in Docklands. Let's all talk about it like it's the most amazing thing that's ever happened and pretend that Docklands isn't bland and tedious...


Created by French artist Pierre Vivant in 1998, the Traffic Light Tree mirrors the Plane Trees next door and apparently, "The Sculpture imitates the natural landscape of the adjacent London Plane Trees, while the changing pattern of the lights reveals and reflect the never ending rhythm of the surrounding domestic, financial and commercial activities".
