"Neon Garden" presents a Japanese garden in which the traditional environmental elements have been replaced with a set of neon symbols, including Peace, Love and Justice.

These signs make the intentions of the Japanese garden more conspicuous and transparent. The work aims to fuse the contemplative aspects of Eastern philosophy with the current culture of convenience.
