Titled はなの唄(Hana no Uta), a publication that explores Ishikawa’s relationship with the art form and the creation process. The publication references not only the act of making, explored through book design, where the reader can deconstruct the publication to inspect sections of the Ikebana arrangements or create their own individual landscapes, but also the historical role of books in disseminating Ikebana to foreign audiences.
