Workshop: Ikebana Ohara School experience
Through the creation of a simple arrangement, a basic but highly significant form of the Ohara School, the teachers will explain the meaning of the preparation in itself, the importance of each element, branch or leaf, and its positioning. Ohara emphasises seasonal qualities, natural growth and the beauty of natural environments. Participants will gain an insight into the profound philosophical and aesthetic meaning of this ancient Japanese art. Ikebana is one of the three classical Japanese arts of refinement, with the art of appreciating Japanese incense and the Japanese Tea Ceremony, the Way of Tea.
