The  duo exhibition Isamu Noguchi and Hiroshi Teshigahara ( Sogetsu Plaza, 1980.)

“Both my father Sofu and I knew Isamu well.  I heard from my father that Isamu once said, “If you set a pine, it should not  look like a pine. It is very difficult not to make it look like a pine, though.  Am I right, Sofu?” My father took the words very seriously because, I think, they  reflected Isamu’s original view of ikebana that the particularities of pine as  a material are supposed to have been digested and assimilated into the completed  ikebana work. I like these words very much, too.

Excerpted from an article written  by Hiroshi Teshigahara on Sankei Newspaper dated January 26, 1989
