A perfect fit for the Magic city and its love of basketball, renowned contemporary artist, Cj Hendry unveils HOOPS Tree, a stunning basketball tree public art installation.

Working with the city of Miami, HOOPS Tree has been in the works for the past year, and stands at a towering 20 ft with 34 hoops reminiscent of chandeliers hanging from the sky. Located in the Wynwood art district, HOOPS Tree is a rich deep blue popping out from the oceanic landscape.

Revealed on December 6th to the public, anyone who successfully sank 34 baskets in a row in each hoop on video in the opening days was potentially able to claim a prize of 1 million dollars!
