Ikebana

Ikebana is the art of arranging different types of flowers into a pot or bowl. This art is practiced by japanese people.

To be able to do ikebana nicely, one need to understand the connection between nature and human. In ikebana the artist doesn't use much bloomed flowers, they use twigs, branches, and leaves. Though ikebana is a creative art, it has many rules that need to be noted.

It is a traditional japanese art which has been passed down through many generations. It symbolized the understanding of an individual about the beauty of flowers and plants. Ikebana also can be related to pottery. Pottery is used to make the container of the flower arrangement.
