Work Details
What are the margins? I asked myself.
According to some dictionaries, the word “margin” literally means a white area that is left over. In Chinese characters, however, the word is expressed as “extra white,” but sometimes the extra space that is considered to be the margin is not necessarily white.
It is not “the space left after something is written,” but “a space that is left over to enhance something that is written” or “a space that is full of possibilities for all kinds of things.
For me, however, it is something that has been created in the course of a single lifetime. And above all, I ask myself, is not the ink that is put on the paper by the brush the margin itself?

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.
