When The Ink Blossoms

This workshop offers an immersive creative experience that bridges the visceral power of "Bokusho" (contemporary ink calligraphy) with the refined aesthetics of "Shimenawa"—the traditional Japanese New Year wreath. Participants will be guided to externalize their inner landscapes, transforming fleeting emotions into unique, tangible visual art.

Diverging from the rigid conventions of traditional calligraphy, this session champions pure abstract expression. Guided by personal intuition rather than structured characters or strokes, the experience is designed to be fully accessible, requiring no prior calligraphy background. Under the tutor’s guidance, participants will learn to harness the tonal gradients of ink, the fluid movement of lines, and the expressive texture of feibai (flying white/dry brush strokes) to intuitively manifest their current emotional states and dynamic energy onto paper.

This emotional ink masterpiece will then be seamlessly integrated with the "Shimenawa" wreath—a sacred symbol of blessing and renewal. By curation and arranging an array of dried botanicals and ornaments, participants will explore the interplay of color harmony and spatial composition, ultimately materializing and grounding their internal emotions into a compelling, tactile artwork.

Free Registration Activities

Participants are recommended to wear black or dark-colored clothing.

第一部分：音樂、情緒與肢體墨象的初綻

引導參加者沉浸於特定音樂氛圍中，藉此喚醒並凝聚內在情緒。活動先以中大尺寸毛筆讓參加者進行直覺式的筆墨初體驗；隨後，參加者將移師至大型宣紙前，結合當下的情緒與肢體律動，揮灑大尺寸毛筆。透過全身心的投入，於紙上展現出水墨獨有的濃淡過渡、線條粗細與動態張力。

第二部分：色彩、空間與情緒實體化的層次堆疊

導師將首先介紹各式乾花的植物特性與色彩美學。隨後，引導參加者將第一節所釋放的抽象情緒進一步「立體化」與「層次化」。參加者將以傳統注連繩為基底，自由編排並加插乾花與配飾，在實作中體驗如何運用色彩心理與空間構圖，將無形的心境轉化為具備三維張力的藝術實體。

第三部分：結構解構與最終共生：墨象扇面與花環的藝術組裝

本節為最終的藝術整合。參加者將第一節創作的宣紙墨象作品進行結構加工，將其塑形為扇形樣式或其他聯想創作。最後，在導師引導下，參加者將這片承載著自身情緒的墨象扇面，精巧地嵌入第二節完成的注連繩花環之中。透過平面與立體的交織，完成一件象徵福氣、兼具個人情感與空間美學的獨一無二跨界藝術裝置。
