IKEBANA

Sogetsu Ikebana is a three-dimensional artistic expression composed of flower and plant material arranged in a container.  Although it is based on Japanese tradition, Sogetsu is becoming recognized throughout the world as a sculptural form of art.  It is a school that strives for a modern fresh style that evolves along with society.  Sogetsu promotes an Ikebana of no limits in which plant materials of any type are used and to be displayed anywhere and in any circumstance.  It is up to the aesthetic awareness of the individual Ikebana designer to compose the materials, choose their most beautiful aspects, order them, and endow them with a value or feeling transcending that which they had in nature.  As an Ikebana designer I am encouraged to create sculptural compositions that are individualistic and imaginative.  I have applied this philosophy to my Jewellery.
