Mini gardeners #2

Description

Jaune dropped some mini gardeners in the neighbourhood of Gentbrugge in Gent. The goal is to pay a tribute to Louis van Houtte, a botanist from the 19th century who brought a lot of tropical plant from South America to Belgium, at a time when it couldn’t be delivered in less than 3 working days. He travelled to Brazil in a boat, trudge in the jungle for days to find unknown plants, made it's way back to Gent just to bring back flowers. Just imagine.

Part of the Street art Ledeberg project by Wallin' vzw, supported by Stad Gent.

My life? Street art, music, European comics, contemporary art, travelling... On my FlickR account you'll find all my street art photography, and yes that means a lot of pictures. Living in Ghent (Belgium), so most pictures are taken in my home town. And yes, that's the place I'm taking care of on Street Art Cities. Let me know when you come over to visit, perhaps we can have a drink or walk.
