I found this Japanese artist by complete serendipity - happy accident! Her stuff is amazing! I have always had a thing for root systems - trees and branches. These are from her installation Urban Nature. Her name is NAOKO ITO. The comments that some people gave about her glass jars are funny because they show how some people really seem to appreciate it, and how others are poking holes just out of plain jealousy! I like the way she puts some little jars inside the bigger jars. I'm wondering how she preserved them all. Someone else also said within the comments that they look like the branches will grow, and so the jars will multiply to contain them. I think it's just fabulous!
