Brightly painted in primary colors, used auto wheel rims comprise the trunk and canopy of this urban tree. Four additional rims hanging on rings have fan blades that will spin in the wind. This artist’s design highlights the need to recycle discarded materials and to use natural energy sources in fun and creative ways.
