- Metaphor - Tree of Utah - The Tree of Utah, also known as the Tree of Life, is an impressive 87-foot-tall sculpture crafted by Swedish artist Karl Momen in the 1980s and officially dedicated in 1986. This remarkable piece, primarily made of concrete, features a square ‘trunk’ supporting six spheres adorned with natural rock and minerals found in Utah. Additionally, several hollow sphere segments are placed on the ground around its base. A protective fence currently surrounds the base to prevent any accidents from falling tiles.
The plaque on the sculpture bears the words from “Ode to Joy” by Friedrich Schiller, famously used in the chorus of Beethoven’s Ninth Symphony. It is said that Momen was inspired to create this towering 87-foot (27 m) tree after envisioning it while driving across the vast Bonneville Salt Flats.
After the dedication of this artistic masterpiece, Momen generously donated the sculpture to the State of Utah and returned to Sweden.
