Evaluation:
Another Silver prize winner is from Japan. The layout looks like a piece of modern art, expressing a space in the cave with the dynamic arrangement of driftwood. Some kinds of Willow moss are used, but it gives too much of a monotone impression. The layout could have been completely different if the creator chose to express a different world by using red stemmed plants around the mouth of cave. It could make a visual effect as if we were looking at different outside world by sitting in the cave.
