Collaborative artistic workshop

Practice the basic japanese calligraphy form -”Kaisho-style” or the basic Japanese calligraphy stroke skills by using the Japanese calligraphy tools. The workshop is a collaborative artistic workshop organized by at least two artists. The workshop combines the uniqueness of each artistic part to develop creativity for example “Calligraphy and movement” and “Calligraphy and pigments”. Although Japanese calligraphy contains over 1000 years of history, Yamamoto enjoys discovering new calligraphy artworks through the collaborative artistic workshop. Yamamoto is open to collaborating with any kind of arts.
