Floating Orange Tree by Israeli artist Ran Morin: tree is growing out of the pitcher is levitating in the courtyard at old city Jaffa. Tel Aviv.

---

Among the city streets of old Jaffa is a hidden work of Morin's known as the Floating Orange Tree. Finished in 1993, this is a small orange tree that is elevated off of the ground by a large earthenware jug hung by metal chains from the walls of houses nearby. The tree is growing out of the pitcher, trying to break it. Morin sought to emphasize the increasing world of separation between man and nature, as "creatures that grow in containers."
