Ikebana : the Zen way of flowers /

Ueno, Yuji,

Ikebana : the Zen way of flowers / Yuji Ueno ; [translated from Japanese by Leeyong Soo]. - 208 pages : color illustrations ; 27 cm

Originally published in Japanese as "Hanaike no kandokoro" in 2019. Includes index.

Why I wrote this book -- About the term "hanaike" -- Looking at flowers / arrangements with a single type of flower -- Light and flowers / creating a natural arrangement -- Vessels and flowers / enjoying combinations -- Being aware of gravity / making use of branches and stems -- Balance / the balance of beauty -- Techniques for personalize hanaike.

It's all about light, texture, colour, shape and balance! Filled with inspiring images of unconventional flower arrangements, this new book by Japanese Ikebana master Yuji Ueno shows you how to use light and position as well as colour, shape and texture - of both flowers and vessel - to make inexpensive floral arrangements that convey a Zen sense of simplicity, calm and balance.
