Japanese artist Takanori Aiba displayed an unfathomable amount of patience and talent by sculpting this castle around an actual bonsai tree. The project was an experiment aimed at producing a modern bonsai style with an emphasis on “the beauty of spiritual accordance between humans and nature.”
Aiba also created a second bonsai sculpture which you can check out after the break.
