Ikebana is an art form which uses flowers as the main "tool" or "ingredient". It begun at Japanese buddhist temples, where monks made the first "Ikebana" as sacrificial flower-arrangements. The basic idea was to bring humanity and nature together in harmony.
The philosophy was to be faithful to the "soul" of the material which was being currently used. The maker also had to give the arrangement a natural feeling. Artistic taste and empathy for the material had to be used in order to find the deeper meaning and vision within the material. The ways of the old also mentioned a right way to breathe while making Ikebana, in order to achieve a link between the artist and the art.
