A vertical, multi-tiered wooden sculpture, approximately 3-4 meters in height, stands outdoors on a grassy plot. The sculpture, dark grey-brown from weathering, is intricately carved with numerous human figures integrated into its pillar-like form. The upper section depicts figures carrying large, "X"-shaped cross-like structures and reaching upwards. Mid-sections feature dense arrangements of standing and seated figures, organized in horizontal bands, engaged in various implied actions and interactions. The base transitions into root-like carvings, from which additional figures emerge. To the immediate left of the sculpture, a plant with broad green leaves and multiple bright red Canna lily flowers is visible. The sculpture rests on a concrete base surrounded by short green grass and patches of bare earth. In the background, a multi-story building with light orange-brown walls and numerous windows, featuring wooden frames and some internal blinds, is present. A balcony with decorative dark metal railings extends from the building. To the left, a set of wooden steps with a matching railing leads to an entrance. To the right of the sculpture, a low, grey concrete bench-like structure is situated on the grass. The scene is illuminated by natural daylight, casting soft shadows. This sculpture, known as the "Tree of Life," is located within the grounds of the Arusha International Conference Centre (AICC) in Arusha, Tanzania.
