Modern-day plant hunter Nishihata Seijun carries on the profession of intrepid explorers who searched the world for exotic plant species during the age of colonial empires. He imports and exports large amounts every year, covering everything from small houseplants to large event installations.
His arrangements turn commercial facilities, rooftop gardens, and other ordinary spaces into vibrant green oases. We follow him to observe his magic at work.
