White and Black – A Tapestry in Ink

Born in Osaka in 1978, I grew up surrounded by the scent of ink.
My grandmother, a calligraphy master, often wrote beside me. Watching her, I was drawn into the world where words became lines, and lines spoke like words.

I came to believe that calligraphy is not just writing—it is the expression of one’s inner self. This thought became the foundation of my art.

In high school, I discovered the joy of conveying feelings through writing. Since then, I’ve explored my own path in calligraphy, teaching myself along the way.

In the quiet spring of 2020, I reflected deeply on the essence of calligraphy.
I began studying under Shoshosai, a calligrapher I had long admired, and started facing modern calligraphy—between tradition and innovation—with new eyes.

White and Black: calm yet intense.
I believe calligraphy continues to evolve as a powerful form of contemporary expression.
