Скачать или смотреть Ikebana with Mullein: Exploring Texture and Line

Some materials are just so tactile! You see it and you want to touch it. In this video, Ekaterina explores working with mullein in Ikebana, an unusual material with special, pronounced texture. By observing its character and natural movement, the arrangement evolves through listening rather than forcing.

Instead of adding more elements, the focus remains on the conversation between two stems, preserving space to allow the texture and line to speak clearly.

🌸 What you’ll see:

Observing and approaching an unfamiliar plant in Ikebana
Beginning with the strongest line, and adapting when the material asks otherwise
Preserving open space
Choosing a flower that supports movement without overpowering
Working with a wooden Japanese-style vase with a naturally hidden kenzan

Rather than building complexity, the composition highlights the personality of the material, allowing discovery to guide the design.

Have you ever worked with a strange plant like Mullein?
