Around one month ago, following someone’s request, I wrote “continuation”. As a matter of fact, at that time I had a feeling that the idea could be expanded. Then I wrote this; inheritance of tradition, continuation of efforts; and as the photo shows the most important idea comes at the end “to the future”.

Through my calligraphic activities, I got a precious acquaintance with a paperer.
As I have practiced calligraphy since childhood, “paperers” means to me a group of very special people. From them, I got great assistance that words cannot express on the occasion of my first solo exhibition at the beginning of 2009 and three group exhibitions that followed it.
And I have always been keen to know what their essential works be.
And so, I was extremely happy when they let me visit her house and witness the place and their trade and business directly.
Moreover, I found out that she is not only a good artisan but a fantastic artist herself. The admirable artisanship and art that she creates are the result of her long-standing efforts.
This “continuation” was none other than her request. I put it on the beautiful frame I got at her place.
