This Korean Calligraphy Artist Creates Large-Scale Works of Art

[@dsproductions47]

His work is actually really good, it's a different form of art, and it's hard to understand it or appreciate it if you aren't into it, but I can assure you that it's something that's harder than it looks, and the more you study it, the more you learn why certain things in the art are appreciated. It's okay to dislike this form, if one doesn't like, it, but just want to inform people that this indeed takes talent.

[@JuliusSeizure54]

ds productions hi, do you have more information about his work? I can’t seem to find him when I search for him. Thankyou in advance

[@fibil5310]

Whats great about calligraphy is how much personality and style comes through the artists handwriting, and through performance art you can see them handle the brush masterfully. I love writing caligraphy but its hard to get back into, so its nice this popped on my feed.

This is why I love collagraphy. Every Calligrapher has their own way of channeling the words. Weather it's making the letter perfect or making the energy of the letter speak for itself. People spend a lifetime mastering themselves. When we master ourselves, others will come and watch.

Art is a universal language. I never saw this man before today. I don't know what he is writing. But I look at his performance. I look at his art. Then, I look at his eyes. And I understand.

[@dsproductions47]

Just to let people know, each stroke he does is intentionally placed and each line is given its own trait. Like other forms of art, it's hard to appreciate if you are not really into it, but if you are, and studied it, you can really appreciate the composition and the details.

@@ZKZ123 Modern Chinese use simplified Chinese characters. However, Koreans and Japanese use traditional Chinese characters. The next section would be, why did Koreans and Japanese use Chinese characters? That's because Chinese said "I am the center of the world and you shall follow me. We're going to set up the system where we SHARE and EXCHANGE our cultures. And we approve all your kings." If you're going to call that "stealing" then maybe the Boxer Rebellion wasn't a mass genocide and terrible tragedy after all.
