Fukinoto piano Rusting steel beams and concreteFukinoto, the butterbur sprout, pushes through bitumen and concrete across Yubari every spring, indifferent to what is built above it. In Hokkaido culture it marks the end of winter, the first green thing after snowmelt. Here it surfaces beside a quiet street, snow still covering the ground. Part of the Streetscapes of Yubari series.
