'Born in 1975, Japanese artist Takaya started out in the world of culinary arts, and in 2004 he started his work as a Flower Artist in Kyoto.
Takaya adorns the heads of models with raw vegetables and blossoming flowers. He affixes the clusters of plants to styled hair, just like a florist would arrange a bunch of flowers, before pruning them with hairdressing scissors.
This unusual form of decoration is used for live performances as well as weddings.'
