"心" – Heart
Paper size H140 x W140 cm
This piece was commissioned for the main conference room of a client’s office, written on a 140 x 140 cm sheet of paper. The character "心" (Heart) was chosen as a symbol of inner strength and authenticity.
Created with the hope that it would uplift and energize the team even in the face of a challenging market, this work serves as a powerful reminder:
Every action, every creation, every decision — when it comes from a true and honest heart — carries real impact.
I wrote this piece with the intention of grounding the space in sincerity, and to inspire those who see it to reconnect with their purpose and passion.
"愛" – Love (Wall Mural)
This calligraphy piece was written directly onto the wall of a client’s interior space upon their request. The character "愛" (Love) was chosen to reflect their desire to approach both work and personal life with a spirit of love, care, and wholeheartedness.
As an artist, I resonated deeply with this sentiment. When I wrote this piece, I poured into each stroke my own passion and love — not just for calligraphy, but for life itself.
It’s a reminder that when we act with love, everything around us transforms with meaning and vitality.
Passion and love for what you do — that is the energy behind this work.
稚 Innocence
Paper size H50 x W50 cm
I was commissioned to write the character 「稚」, which means “immaturity” or “innocence,” by a teacher who is deeply devoted to nurturing young minds. He once shared with me, “Teaching is always a balance between guiding immaturity and cultivating innocence and the joy of life.”
⠀
I was truly moved by his philosophy and the care he brings to his work. It was an honour to create this piece for someone who sees beauty in growth, potential, and the delicate art of teaching.
⠀
May this calligraphy carry the spirit of his mission and continue to inspire.
"巳" – Year of the Snake (New Year Calligraphy)
Paper size H80 x W80 cm
To celebrate the beginning of 2025—the Year of the Snake—I was commissioned to write the character 巳 during a client’s private New Year’s gathering. The finished piece was framed and delivered as a commemorative artwork for the occasion.
Created with heartfelt wishes for a bright and energetic year ahead, this piece was written in the hope of inspiring all who witnessed it at the turning of the year. I also hope that every time the artwork is seen, it will bring back the energy and spirit of that powerful moment of creation, serving as a lasting source of strength and inspiration.
興 Prosper
Paper size H80 x W80 cm
Commissioned by a client, this piece features the character 興, symbolizing vitality, motivation, and flourishing success.
