Chandigarh 20th
October:- Dr. Ambedkar
Institute of Hotel Management, Catering and Nutrition, Sector-42D, a premier
institute providing hospitality education, under Ministry of Tourism,
Government of India, is organising a two day Flower Arrangement Workshop in the
Institute premises.
The workshop is being facilitated by Nandita
Chaturvedi, Resource Person from “The All India Kitchen Garden Association, New
Delhi.” Around 400 participants including students and faculty members from various
hospitality institutes in different parts of the country attended the workshop.
The workshop strives to impart the knowledge and skills of designing floral
arrangements and to inculcate the significance of bottle gardening and water
landscapes.
The first day of the workshop commenced with
the inauguration and lamp lighting ceremony. As the event progressed, the
participants were spellbound when Nandita
Chaturvedi showcased her impeccable art of crafting various floral forms
using the Principles of flower arrangement. Some of the creations included
S-shaped, oval shaped, cascade
flower arrangements made up of flowers like Anthurium, Oriental lilies,
Carnations, etc.
Nandita Chaturvedi said that the fragrance of
flowers and artistic skill with creative approach gives spiritual as well as
aesthetic pleasure to the viewers. The flowers do not look like flowers but
art.
The attention given to the choice of plant,
material and container, the placement of branches, and the relationship of the branches
to the container and the surrounding space, has distinguished this art from
simply decorative uses of flowers.
Bharti Tyagi, Principal of the AIHM, said
that the workshop will aim at exploring floral creativity and designs and
encourage the students and faculty members to come together on a common
platform and exchange various ideas and concepts. This will definitely help
them to boost their knowledge and skills.
The workshop will continue tomorrow where
more floral creations and techniques of bottle gardening will be
demonstrated.
