Topic: Moribana


  
  Moribana - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Moribana (盛り花, 盛花) is a type of Japanese flower arrangement Ikebana which uses a shallow container and a kenzan, a holder with many sharp points into which flowers are inserted.
While the heika style was developed many centuries ago and has a lot of rules, moribana is only about a hundred years old and is not as fussy.
There are different types of moribana depending on the length and angle of the primary, secondary, and ornamental stems.

 Moribana
Moribana, which means "piled up flowers", is entirely different from the former 'standing' arrangement.
Changing from the former Ikebana emphasis on line, where the stems were kept in one clean vertical line at the water's edge, the concept of an arrangement of wider space and depth was born.
Moribana uses a shallow container and a kenzan, a holder with many sharp points into which flowers are inserted.

 THE PRINCIPLES OF MORIBANA   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
Moribana is a compound word consisting of the verb 'moru' (pile-up), and the noun 'hana' (flower).
Although moribana is a more relaxed and less restricted form than the classical arrangements, its aim is to express the same natural beauty as in rikka and shoka arrangements, only in a more direct and simplified manner.
Moribana arrangement is based on asymmetrical placement of three principal elements: Shin (primary branch), Soe (secondary branch), and Tai (tertiary branch).

Moribana was subsequently adopted by most other ikebana schools and has now become the mainstream of the entire ikebana world.
Thus, Moribana, originated by Ohara became the forerunner of all modern ikebana.
In addition to Moribana, the forms of ikebana of the Ohara School include Hana-isho, Heika and Hanamai.

Moribana combines the formal, artificial Rikka and the naturalistic Nageire about equally, and adds a third element-the suggestion of some landscape and natural scenery in order to convey this scenic effect.
Moribana is a natural expression, seeking to reproduce in miniature form the appearance of a view or a garden scene.
The Moribana arrangement can be enjoyed wherever it is placed, whether it be in a chamber, a sitting room, a drawing room or a study.

The "moribana" style arrangements in a low, wide, basin-like container is unique to the world of ikebana.
Moribana arrangements integrate the water surface as a component of the overall composition and require the support of a special flower holder.
There are two basic styles: "moribana" and "nage-ire." Moribana (using a low, shallow container and flower holder) is a relative newcomer in the evolution of ikebana art, but its popularity has placed it alongside the older "nage-ire" (using a taller, upright container without a flower holder) as a primary style.

Except in rose societies where there are students of ikebana, we seldom find classes calling for shoka which consists of, at its most fundamental, three lines of different lengths rising gracefully from the same point of emergence, and pursuing different directions, their tips forming a scalene triangle.
Nagiere and moribana also are composed of three main lines whose tips form a scalene triangle, plus subordinate lines, but the lines may emerge from different points on the pinholder.
Generally, moribana is done in a low container; nagiere in a tall container; shoka and rikka in an in-between container, though modern practice may deviate from this.
