londoner Steve Wheen brings greenery and miniature scenes to the streets of east london in his ‘the pot hole gardener’ project.

the idea, which was conceptualized based on guerrilla gardening, is simple: ‘my neighbourhood has a distinct lack  of green space,’ wheen reflects; ‘[and] I’m a gardener with no garden.’ wheen fills potholes in roads and sidewalks with soil and living plants, decorating the spaces with miniature props to create tiny worlds. The work thus eliminates the danger of potholes as it adds an enchanting bit of art and greenery  into the days of passersby, simultaneously drawing attention to the problem.
