Punk Ikebana
Come out to the forest for a three hour workshop that will culminate with your personal creation of a dried floral arrangement for your home or office. This could be something you hang from the front door, could be something that you put in the center of a dining room table, or on a pedestal as a standalone art piece.
Connect to the seasons, your own hands, and the elemental living world by creating a piece of nature art from materials sourced at our ten-acre eco-reserve.
These arrangements are inspired by Ikebana, the Japanese art of flower arranging, which translates as 'flowers kept alive'. Ikebana is a 600-year old tradition, emphasizing process as much as product, and dwelling on our relationship with the Living World. While this often translates into a sort of minimalism, it is really a way to alchemize and distill the beauty of nature into a flower arrangement.
