In Japanese culture, Cherry Blossoms represent how short and fleeting life really is and how incredibly beautiful from its infancy to death. The moment when the blossoms start to sprout and bloom the explosion of life happens very quickly and the beauty of the flowers in full bloom is mesmerizing. As the flowers start to fall from the tree showering the landscape with a beautiful blanket of color everywhere is intoxicating. This cycle of life happens in about 15 days, which represents fleeting and beautiful life. This project tries to capture the stage in my life at this moment as the cycle of my life is in transition into the next beautiful position where the flowers are falling. Life has been incredibly beautiful, and this stage of my life is just as beautiful as the beginning.
