Honorable Mention / 2020 / Nature / Trees

• Photographer
  Yuki Hamanaka, Japan
• Studio
  Japan

The subject is pruned trees planted in various cities in Japan.
In Japan, the pruning of planted trees has taken root as a means of coexistence and prosperity with nature.
I thought it was possible to visualize Japanese aesthetics from pruned trees.
To achieve an aesthetic sensation, we chose the margin-aware approach used in typical Japanese art, such as Japanese painting and ink painting.
