Sogetsu School
The Sogetsu School is a prominent style of Ikebana, the Japanese art of flower arrangement. Founded by Sōgetsu Ikenobo in the 20th century, it emphasizes creativity and individual expression. Unlike traditional styles, Sogetsu encourages practitioners to use a variety of materials, including unconventional items, to create unique arrangements.
In Sogetsu, the focus is on the harmony between the flowers, the container, and the surrounding space. This approach allows for a more modern interpretation of floral design, making it accessible to people of all backgrounds. The school offers classes and workshops worldwide, promoting the art of Ikebana to a global audience.
