Appreciation towards AMKK for providing the following description:

艺术家和设计师Azuma Makoto出生于1976年，并在东京的高档区域青山经营自己的高级时尚花店JARDINS des FLEURS。他在这里进行个人的艺术实践，同时也为客户工作。他利用树木，树叶，苔
藓等等人工植物创造各种艺术品。这是他近期的一个个人项目的个展，他将各种叶片集合起来，形成让人流连忘返的艺术品。这些作品如此独一无二，想必完成需要高超的技艺和快速的行动，这些植物还保持着鲜活，就像是自然的状态一样。

Azuma Makoto从2005年起就在世界各地进行个展，09年创办Azuma Makoto植物研究所，从艺术的角度追求植物的潜力。他的作品独特而神秘，尊重自然，保持花木的美丽，又提升他们本身的价值。大家不要错过他网站上的更多精彩作品哟，点击下面的蓝色链接吧。想要买植物的朋友可以看看这里哦。

Artist and designer Azuma Makoto was born in 1976 and runs a haute couture flower shopcalled JARDINS des FLEURS in Moto-Azabu, Tokyo. His work with plants and flowers alsoextends into personal artistic practice and client work where he creates a wide varietyof sculptures, installations and objects using tress, leaves, moss, and other plantsboth organic and artificial. One of his most recent exhibitions, Collapsible Leaves atEye of Gyre Gallery involved a remarkable collection of suspended and mountedsculptures made of tightly folded and layered leaves. The pieces are unique in that Iimagine they must have required rapid assembly a single leaf at a time, and yet look asif they are naturally occurring objects.

Makoto Azuma has been in the flower business since 2002, and is an owner of the haute- couture floral shop,“JARDINS des FLEURS” in Aoyama, Tokyo. As a flower artist, he has been actively participating in art exhibitions, performance, design etc… all over the world.

From 2005, he has been holding solo exhibitions in cities like New York, Paris and Germany. In 2009, he found an experimental laboratory “Azuma Makoto Botanical Research Institute” and ever since then, he has been expanding art activities pursuing infinitive potential of plants.

Every activity of Makoto Azuma focuses on elevating value of flowers and plants by finding unique and mysterious forms that they posses. Respecting the existence of nature and keeping its dignity, he converts and expresses these beautiful elements to aesthetic level of artwork.
