Under the blooming cherry tree 

The  work presented for “hana2010”,
ikebana exhibition

2010.3.31-4.5 , Kyoto Art center, Kyoto

 

Today, we Japanese all love cherry tree and
are looking forward to that full blooming.

But we had something close to awe to this flower,
only a few hundred years ago.

We usually choose the place illuminated or built for seeing spot.
But I’d like to see various aspects of the beauty in the flower.

This work is a homage to a novel “Under the full bloom of the cherry tree forest”
written by a Japanese author “Ango Sakaguchi”
