Bonsai-Saikei

Saikei
 
Trees, soil and stones in the landscape saikei.
Saikei, Literally translated as "planted landscape". This is the art of creating miniature landscapes that combine miniature living trees with earth, stones, water, and vegetation-related (such as land cover) in a single tray or container that serupa.Sebuah saikei landscape will remind the viewer of nature through the topographic location of the whole, the choice of materials soil, and species used in planting them.
A derivative of the Japanese art of bonsai, bonseki, and bonkei, saikei differs from its parent form in a few key things. A typical saikei contained in a large ceramic tray with a low side. In the tray, rocks and soil have been prepared to suggest landscapes, often mimic certain types of real landscapes such as beach or mountain path. small trees planted in the ground and can be arranged to emphasize the perspective of, for example, with the trees smaller to the back of the screen. The trees themselves are similar, but usually much more complicated than, bonsai tree. They selected and cultivated to look like a tree grown in accordance with their simulated landscapes grow into non-tree plant specimens can also be grown in saikei, such as cover crops or non-specimen trees that help evoke the landscape.
According to Lew Buller, Toshio Kawamoto (founder of saikei) "insisted that his life is not bonsai landscape", Citing saikei mandatory rules such as the use of stones, and placement of trees and roots on the upper edge of the tray. Shape the ground is very important in saikei, where necessary reduced or absent in bonsai. In general, saikei concentrate on the revival of live natural landscape, rather than on the character of individual trees as emphasized in bonsai.
Art bonseki and bonkei also describes a miniature landscape in a tray, but does not include living trees or other flora. In bonseki, simple landscape depicted on a flat baking sheet using a sand and stone. In bonkei, stone and materials sculptable (eg, cement) are formed into the hills and mountains rise from the ground materials such as sand and gravel. Miniature human figures, animals, buildings, and other outdoor elements can be placed on bonkei but will be out of place in a saikei. The lack of material means of life and bonkei bonseki simple to preserve and display relative to saikei.
