Contemporary Ikebana

The origins of Ikebana lie in a Buddhist expression of respect and appreciation for the harmony and beauty of nature. Teachers, together with colleagues and students, position their flower arrangements in a carefully selected setting. This religious statement has gradually turned into an aesthetic expression that was first used for the embellishment of tokonoma and later as a decoration of the interior in general. This book not only shows larger works, like land art, but also smaller refined arrangements.
