アレンジメントは直感的なもの。輪郭をきめる大ぶりな花からはじめ、小さな花で間を埋めていく。絵画のようなわかりやすい完成はないけれど、何十年と毎日花と向き合ってきて、花とのコネクションを感じながら、終わりの瞬間がわかるようになった。
仕事のときは動きやすいものを身につける。右手の薬指に毎日つけているゴールドのリングの重さは、私に強さと安定を与えてくれる。自由に心地良く仕事ができるように、手につけるのはこのリングだけ。
My process of arranging is somewhat intuitive. Generally, I would start with the flowers which create an outline for the shape, and then fill in the detailed smaller flowers. There is no moment of completion like a painting, however, since I’ve been working with flowers for many years and have established a connection to the flowers, I now have the sense to know when to stop.
My attire is very practical whilst I am working. I wear my gold ring on my right ring finger, all day, every day. The weight of the piece provides me with an element of emotional strength and grounding. This is the only accessory I wear on my hands. I like them to be free and able to do the work.
