These delicate blossoms bloom for just a few short weeks, reminding us of the passing of time and the impermanence of all things. This collection strive to capture the essence of Sakura through visuals, inviting the viewer to contemplate the beauty that lies in the fleeting moments of life.

It encourages us to appreciate the changing seasons and to find joy in the passing of time, reminding us that impermanence is a natural part of the cycle of life.
