Four Elements vol. 4 風 -WIND- / Saturday May 1st, 2010 / Final series of four exhibitions.
I had four Japanese calligraphy for exhibition:
We can’t see the form of wind, but we can see the force of wind in our environment – the swinging tree branches, trembling leaves, subtle scent of fragrance, sea waves, or movement of your girlfriend’s hair – in numerous ways. My theme was to embody this invisible force of wind in three different ways in terms of its strength and seasonal characters through different styles of brush stroke techniques in Japanese calligraphy.

Live painting with Noa-. I started to write “wind” in powder blue.
Removed masking tapes of cherry blossom flower petal. Adding gold shadows.
Thinking where to write my signature next to Noa-‘s…
Thank you for watching, everyone!! ;-)
