New Delhi Chapter #77

On the ninth of September, our chapter was privy to an excellent Ikebana demonstration by a Riji of the Sogetsu School, Ms Elena Kilchevsky from Moscow, Russia.
The program was held on Zoom and had 130 viewers from across the globe.
Ms. Nobuko Sakata, the Ikebana International President, began the program with a warm message for the chapter. As always, she was extremely inspiring.
Elena depicted the beauty of dry materials juxtaposed with rare greens and lots of flowers like hydrangeas, roses, gypsophilla. Her structures took your breath away! She made 7 impeccable arrangements and shared her techniques with all. An unforgettable experience!
