What's the difference between Japanese and Chinese aesthetics
absolutely fantastic video ty
👍👌👌🙂🙂
Thanks for the beautiful video.
As a 20-year-old boy who is passionate about the world of bonsai you made me even more curious about gardens in japan ect.
Thank you
👋👋👋👋👋
Wow have you got one of those.will they grow anywhere
Ahh I can't wait to go to Japan!! We are going in August.
I have always understood Japanese aesthetic to be much less ostentatious and simple by comparison to much more elaborate and showy Chinese aesthetic. As as people they were historically poorer and more modest, while looking to China for their art and learning with admiration and respect.
Great documentary. 🙏 Very much looking forward to part 2.
So looking forward for the next.
Since my retirement in February, 2022 (at age 70 – mandated by law) your passion for Bonsai and lucid instruction have opened a new platform for experiencing beauty; this video on the Japanese aesthetic layers the joyful epiphany. Many, many thanks and blessings to you, Bjorn, and your family.
Good job
Bjorn, this video is fantastic. Thank you.
Such a beautiful video Bjorn – great work 🙂
Beautiful work as always sir!
Just well done….
This is a fabulous video, very well done. No doubt about it, Japanese bonsai has a beautiful aesthetic yet in my opinion it falls short of truly representing the age and character present in nature. I look forward to seeing a higher level of bonsai emerge, the future for the art is bright!⭐️⭐️⭐️
Bjorn I recently noticed scale on my Mugo pine bonsai, do you recommend a specific treatment while they are dormant? Cheers!
That was beautiful, informative and healing. Thank you Bjorn 😌
Aesthetics beauty is very difficult to talk about. But you know when it is
Thanks Bjorn, such a beautiful country.
Sounds good lol
