Calligraphy

Calligraphy allows me to connect with the emotions of the poets through the ancient writing. However, the meaning of calligraphy, or in a broader context, handwriting, is far beyond this only use.

“Grasp firmly a fountain pen in your hand and pierce it into the balloon. When it descends and drifts for a bit may you listen to people down in the streets, diverse voices of our civilization.” Bleeding Ink in a Digital Vacuum by Will Wang

Workshops

Responsible for Chinese calligraphy, I run several workshops that features introductory Chinese calligraphy throughout the Chinese cultural week every year, each with 20 participants across faculty, students and families living on campus.

Notable Works

The scripts I’ve mastered are Qin bamboo slips script and official script. My works won me Gold in the 2019 Youth National Contest, and silver in the 2018 one.
