bottom of the trees








Love this series of photographs. Reminds me of living in the city, and waving to your neighbours, and community gardens, and unexpected flowers in parking lots.



I have been interested in observing how people transform the public space in front of their houses. In Sapporo, Japan, the main city of Hokkaido, the bottom of the trees are usually decorated with plants and flowers by people living around. Sometimes messy, sometimes unbalanced, sometimes crowded, each tree has a different world, a different mind, and a different personality at the bottom of it.
