Zen gardens tend to be contextualized with eastern subjects; this one however, resides in a Westerner's home. The original structure and functionality conveys a theme of Zen, yet the failure of the owner to upkeep the sand in its pristine and original condition nods toward the ethnocentrism of the western world, ultimately portraying the notion of neglect.
