Chinese calligraphy, an esteemed art form with a history spanning over 2,000 years, is more than just writing – it’s an expressive journey into an artist’s inner world! From bold, structured scripts, to graceful, flowing cursive, each brushstroke carries profound cultural significance. Often described as ‘meditation in motion’, the art of calligraphy fosters mindfulness and inner peace, with each stroke requiring a skilled focus and balance.
During this immersive experience, guests will learn about the evolution of calligraphy and explore its historical and cultural context. Guided by a skilled master, participants will use the ‘Four Treasures of Study’ – brush, ink, paper and ink slab – to craft their own work of art. This hands-on class presents an artistic challenge while deepening participants’ appreciation for the cultural legacy of Chinese folk traditions.
