Discover how the use of brushes, ink, and rice paper creates the distinct aesthetic characteristic of calligraphy as it was adopted into Korea from China.

Participants in this workshop will go home with a self-written kanji, signed with their name and stamped with a vermilion seal as a keepsake.

Owen Tjon Sie Fat studied Japanese and Korean language and culture at Leiden University and was trained in calligraphy by both Chinese and Japanese calligraphers.
