Ikebana is the Japanese art of flower arrangement, also known as the 'way of flowers'. Originally, ikebana was a kind of offering ritual performed in Buddhist temples in Japan during the 6th century. Evolving over time, it experienced significant development during the Muromachi period (15th century). It sought the same degree of refinement and high aesthetic sense as another art that emerged at the same time, Cha no yu, the tea ceremony. In contrast to flower arrangements in Western countries, Japanese flower arrangement creates a harmony of construction between lines, rhythm and color. Simplicity is highly valued, as is the existence of emptiness (unfilled space). Alongside its enormous popularity in Japan, the art of ikebana has been gaining followers all over the world. Accessible to practitioners of all ages, it already has several schools corresponding to different styles. In this workshop you will discover the secrets of this floral art that, from natural elements such as flowers, branches and plants, creates a harmony of shapes and lines in space. Yuko Kase | Lecturer of the Japanese Language course at the Catholic University, FCH, Institute of Oriental Studies, where she teaches Japanese language and culture.
