The Tree of Life is a symbol that originated in antiquity; it appears in most religions and cultures.  Over the centuries it has been depicted in many different ways.  Here, it is shown with colourful and imaginative flowers and leaves in an image that has been constructed using large ceramic tiles by artist, Marc Egan.  The resulting artwork is 9 feet by 12 feet big.
