"Zen in Calligraphy" is part of a series that explores painted calligraphy using ink and mulberry paper. In this piece, a longer text was written repeatedly on top of itself, creating a painterly texture. While the final product may suggest arbitrariness, it is meticulously crafted according to the rules of traditional Chinese calligraphy.
The work was created exclusively with self-ground Chinese ink, allowing for the finest shades of gray to emerge, enhancing its depth and subtlety. This piece exemplifies the meditative and disciplined approach of Zen art.
The short video shows how Zen in Calligraphy was created. After each level, a detail of the final stage is shown.
