A Deep Dive with Jonas Dupuich
Show notes
Jonas Dupuich, co-founder of the Pacific Bonsai Expo, joins us for an in-depth conversation about the evolving landscape of bonsai judging in the Western world.
Our discussion began with reflections on recent exhibitions, critiques from the National Show, and updates on the next Pacific Bonsai Expo—but quickly unfolded into a far-reaching exploration of how judging standards are developing and the thoughtful lengths Jonas, Eric, and Andrew are going to refine the process.
The transparency and collaboration behind the PBE’s approach to judging are both refreshing and inspiring. This conversation dives deep, exploring the artistry, philosophy, and evolving structure of bonsai exhibition at the highest level.
For those serious about the craft, it’s a rare opportunity to look behind the curtain of one of North America’s most progressive bonsai events.
