A path into bonsai

Bonsai and Japanese garden culture

Kęstutis Ptakauskas connects bonsai with Japanese garden culture in Lithuania. His website presents Bonsai Studija and the Ryto Rasos garden. A Japanese embassy publication documents his work at the SENSEI cultural centre in Alytus.

Style and working approach

His field extends from trees in pots to garden design. Bonsai and niwaki serve different purposes; space, scale and presentation provide a useful context for understanding how they relate.
