Ikebana is a traditional Japanese art form that involves the arrangement of flowers, branches, leaves, and other natural materials in a harmonious and balanced way. Unlike Western flower arrangements, which often aim to create a full and symmetrical look, Ikebana emphasizes simplicity, asymmetry, and negative space.
The goal of Ikebana is to create a sense of natural beauty and balance that harmonizes with its surroundings. Each arrangement is carefully crafted to reflect the season, the setting, and the occasion, and may incorporate a variety of techniques, such as minimalism, asymmetry, and the use of empty space.
