This week Metafleur is participating in creation of floral accompaniment to 🌸🎋 bamboo installation designed by Akito Yamamoto and realised by bamboo craftsman Akihiro Mashimo of Nagaoka Meichiku studio as part of Yowanotsuki Project. The Festival is in Otsu, Japan and the project presents a series of light and floral installation works on its lakeshore inspired by The Tale of Genji, one of the earliest recorded novels written about Court life by lady-in-waiting Murasaki Shikibu in Otsu in the 11th Century. This participation was made possible by funding secured for research into bamboo fencing and use as structural floral supports for event flowers from @the_rhs #rhstravelbursary @thejapanesegardensociety @daiwafoundation 🇯🇵✨
