Ikebana Lesson (Flower Arrangement)

Ikebana is an art which uses careful arrangement of flowers in patterns which attempt to link the spiritual with the natural, and to express balance and harmony.

Ikebana, or Japanese flower arranging, is an art form which, like calligraphy, was possibly brought over from China around the same time as Buddhism, but could be far older, having connections to the native Shinto beliefs. From making floral offerings to shrines and temples, the art of Japanese flower arranging has, in modern times, evolved into the art which is taught in Japanese public schools today. The flowers used in creating this natural art change with the seasons, and each arrangement is full of symbolic meaning also connected to the time of year. Ikebana is a varied art form whose end result depends on the school of thought behind it, with over a thousand schools in existence. Some schools of ikebana held to a philosophy of arrangement that included multiple flowers of varying sizes and colors, but others, such as 16th- century tea master Sen no Rikyu, felt the essence of the art could be expressed in the simplicity of a single flower contained in the humblest vase. What brings them together is that, through studying the art of Japanese ikebana, its practitioners feel they can truly appreciate the simple beauty of nature through this ancient craft.
