ABOUT
This absolutely unique ikebana vase consists of three parts, each of which is made exclusively from organic materials - wood, bark and perennial bamboo trunk. The main and largest of the three parts, as if hugging the bamboo vase itself, is made of bark tightly attached to a wooden base. Thus, when composing an ekibana, the vase itself becomes an integral organic part of the entire floral composition as a whole.
In ikebana, the Japanese art of flower arranging, blossoms, branches, leaves, and stems find new life as materials for art making. In contrast to the western habits of casually placing flowers in a vase, ikebana aims to bring out the inner qualities of flowers and other living materials and express emotion.
The origins of ikebana can be traced back to the introduction of Buddhism to Japan via the Silk Road between the 6th and 8th centuries. An early form of ikebana involved offering flowers to Buddha, signifying a deep spiritual connection with nature, maintaining the 3 basic principles of representing nature through heaven, earth, and man with 3 primary flowers.
Ikebana arrangements are not unlike sculpture. Considerations of color, line, form, and function guide the construction of a work. The resulting forms are varied and unexpected, and can range widely in terms of size and composition, from a piece made from a single flower to one that incorporates several different flowers, branches, and other natural objects.
Clearly, in this particular case, this ikebana vase inspires an ancient meditative practice; serving as a botanical shrine to nature.
