Weeds are Back

"French artist and photographer, Vincent Bousserez has created a travelling public exhibition entitled 'Weeds Are Back' in Strasbourg, France. The artist visited Strasbourg to let his miniature humans loose on the city's urban jungle. 'In Strasbourg, they haven't used any pesticides in the streets since 2007,' said Vincent. 'So little by little, nature took back the urban space. Wild herbs grow everywhere, sidewalks and streets are covered in flowers and weeds - and it is bigger and bigger each year. So I made my little people play in this new nature, right in the centre of the city.'"

Oh, I'd love to visit Strasbourg and see the wilderness sharing the city with the humans.
