The Ikebana project is made with the technique of sumi-e (or Indian ink in Japanese) on rice paper and framed with an embroidery frame. The works in this project are made to be seen with or without a warm light from behind, as can be seen in the photos. It is a project that seeks a connection with the ancestresses through an aesthetic that is based on Japanese aesthetic-philosophical values such as those reflected in the terms wa (harmony, peace and balance), fukinsei (asymmetry and irregularity and yet balanced) or shibui (apparent simplicity as it has been sought after, studied and very controlled). The project has been the result of a long process of research with these techniques, seeking to transmit the transcendentality and the value of all the women who preceded us, bringing love and beauty through their creations. The fragility and sensitivity conveyed by the works are an important part of the message as they connect us with the transience of life.
The exhibition took place in an old Romanesque church.
