Yukio Hirose of Yamato-en, a renowned shohin bonsai shop, came across a very strange creation just ten days before the big autumn event, the Akiga Exhibition, held in Tokyo Ueno. A small child had made a 'pot' of unusual material in which he had planted a tree, and it was unexpectedly beautiful. The work, which was shown at the Akiga exhibition venue, was as Yukio Hirose said, quite cool and cute.
The 'artist' of this pot is Yuu Akutsu, 5, from Sagamihara City, Japan. His mother, Megumi Akutsu, is a bonsai enthusiast who has been growing small bonsai for several years and who Hirose assures us has 'a pretty good sense of style'. This time, we asked Megumi for a photo of the of the young pot artist at work.
