Zoom Demo At SMU
Every year, we are honoured to be invited to present ikebana to the Japanese Culture course offered at St. Mary’s University.
Normally, the demonstration would have been live in the classroom. Afterwards, the students would have been able to see the ikebana arrangements up close and enjoy the subtle details.
But of course, this year is different. University lectures are being conducted online and so must our demonstration! We are posting the demo arrangements below so that the students may have a second look at them.
We’d like to thank Dr. Alexandre Avdulov of the Department of Modern Languages and Classics and all the students in the Japanese Culture course for your warm welcome and keen interest!
Believe it or not, this was our first “Zoom event” ever.
Arrangement No. 1 - Basic Upright Moribana
Arrangement No. 2 - Drawing Attention to the Container
Arrangement No. 3 - Seasonal Arrangement: Autumn
We hope you enjoyed the demonstration!
