This is at the AGO (Art Gallery of Ontario) in Toronto, Canada, if anyone wants to go see this piece face to face.

For all those saying they shouldn't have killed such an old tree: They didn't the tree was a windfall it blew over in a storm.

The installation is called the Hidden Life Within.

The Artist is Giuseppe Penone
