Le portrait des plantes
Jardin des Plantes de Rouen
Exposition - 2016
This work began with the greenhouse history of the Botanical Garden of Rouen while Akira Inumaru was observing the beautiful collection of fuchsias; having arrived from the Americas many centuries ago, the European climate and soil allowed these flowers to flourish and diversify.

it directly in his work, using the sunlight as a tool in a process he calls “Solar distillation.”
