YAMAMOTO Shuji
A lone pine stands on a large rock in a tiny garden. A sharply drooping branch sports green leaves, while long, deep roots cling to the rock at the base. In creating this artistic expression based on a traditional Japanese landscaping style, Yamamoto envisaged a harsh environment, and imagined how the pine that is rooted here, got its shape.
