Hi Nordic Lotus... I love your work. I'm a Sogetsu Ikebana student, too, but I'm new at it. Seeing work as creative as yours is very inspiring. Thank you for sharing.
Ikebana is the Japanese art of arranging flowers. More than being decorative, ikebana is thought of as a path of life or a kind of meditation.
I'm studying Ikebana with the Sogetsu school, and currently I hold a teachers certificate of Sankyu Shihan (teacher, third grade). My flower name is Senju 泉樹.
This blog is for networking and inspiration. Comments are appreciated. You can also contact me directly.

"Ikebana is the art of space - the space between branches, the space between flowers and leaves and the space between masses. In other words, the space between the branches and flowers comes alive. This space is a plentiful void projecting tension and power."
Sofu Teshigahara
"I regard myself as a creator of shape who uses mainly flowers as his metier, rather than purely as an arranger of flowers."
Sofu Teshigahara
“Ikebana is a form of sculpture that exists only within a limited time span, transforms from moment to moment, then perishes.”
