Botanica 001: Ikebana Workshop

  • Workshop
  • Activity

This Ikebana workshop series approaches Ikebana as structure rather than ornament. Working through line, interval and restraint, the session explores negative space as an active force - here 'heaven, human and earth' form a deliberate compositional axis.

Working with curated seasonal, rare and exotic florals, participants engage in focused, hands-on composition that privileges intention and proportion over decoration.

Accessible to beginners yet resonant for those drawn to art and material practice, the workshop extends into a considered pairing of small plates and wine, composed with the same restraint and attention to form.

Each 90-minute workshop covers:
– An introduction to Ikebana philosophy and contemporary interpretation
– Guided hands-on arrangement practice
– A curated selection of seasonal, rare and exotic florals
– Individual feedback and shared reflection
– Small plates and wine in an intimate studio environment
– Your completed arrangement to take home
