Meditation lady - Yasuko

Bonsai has been valued in Japanese households over centuries. Their origin is traced back to Zen Buddhism when Chinese monks developed the dwarfed trees in monasteries as a spiritual practice to inculcate peace and tranquillity.

As bonsai artist works with the tree to bring out its essence. Doing so can be a form of meditation, as the plant and bonsai artist come together to grow a new story.               

A connecting story that weaves together that of the tree and that of the artist.
