Japanese Calligraphy: 'miracle'

This is a series of workshops designed by Azumi Uchitani to explore Japanese culture through the art of calligraphy and language. We will meet bi-weekly, slowly moving from season to season and uncovering new characters, rituals, concepts and beliefs deeply rooted in Japanese lifestyle. Each event we will centre around a new symbol: we will learn its meaning, discuss a poem about it, meditate and experience the power of the concept through calligraphy practice.

Miracle: 奇跡

We are excited to invite you to our Japanese Calligraphy workshop, where we will explore the art of brush and ink alongside the profound concept of ‘Kiseki’ (奇跡), meaning ‘miracle.’ In Japanese culture, Kiseki represents the extraordinary, the unexpected moments of beauty and transformation that occur in life. Through the fluid strokes of calligraphy, participants will learn how each mark on the paper can reflect this sense of miracle, capturing the essence of presence and mindfulness. Whether you’re a beginner or experienced, this workshop offers a chance to connect with the deeper meaning of Kiseki, and to witness how each stroke holds the potential for creating something truly miraculous.
