Silent Prayers

I started this project in 2012 in my home garden in Kyoto, and have been taking the Bucket_ and_Flowers pictures for more than 5 years. My mother, the gardener in chief loves to make bouquets. These are for friends, for family and for the altar. She always prepares flowers alone at the same place. I don't know why she does so, but I don't want to know why. I think it's not any problem at all if I'll continue this project. When I had the exhibition of this project in Tokyo in 2016, the one of visitors saw the pictures and asked why so many toilet papers are stocked in the same place. This is my father's rule. He feels anxious if he doesn't have extra so he stock up. This question gave me the hint of the answer to another question : " Why do I take these pictures? "
