The most comprehensive showcase ever published of Azuma Makoto’s astonishing flower art and botanical sculpture.
'[Pushes] the boundaries of art and photography to the outer limits with bold, adventurous installations portraying flowers and trees in environments where normally they could never exist' - Royal Photographic Society Journal
Makoto Azuma co-founded the floral atelier Jardins des Fleurs in 2002 with photographer Shunsuke Shiinoki. Azuma has since become internationally renowned for his extraordinary ‘botanical sculptures’, which he has exhibited extensively in New York City and Europe – and even shot into space. Azuma and Shiinoki have collaborated on three volumes of Encyclopedia of Flowers.
