Julia Rush

After being inspired by Josiah Conder’s book The flowers of Japan and the art of floral arrangement, Julia began studying Sogetsu under her inspirational teacher Sandra Marker.

Her favourite thing about Ikebana is discovering the beauty in nature everywhere around her and learning how to arrange the material so that the beauty of each piece of flora truly stands out. She is absolutely mesmerised by Azuma Makoto’s work and hopes to one day meet him.
