Discover a unique experience where art becomes a path to calm, creativity, and well-being.
The Chinese calligraphy and Sumi-e (Zen) painting are ancient oriental disciplines that go far beyond simply learning a technique. Each stroke is a mindfulness practice that invites you to slow down, breathe consciously, and connect with the present moment.
In our classes, you will learn to master the brush, Chinese ink, and rice paper while developing a more sensitive and creative eye. Gradually, you will discover how to express the essence of each form with naturalness, balance, and harmony.
Chinese Calligraphy
The practice begins with the study of ancient Zhuànshū (seal style) characters, renowned for their elegant and organic forms. Through them, you will learn the fluidity of the stroke, brush control, and the beauty of the spontaneous gesture.
Sumi-e Painting (Xieyi)
In Sumi-e painting, you will explore the great themes of Eastern tradition inspired by nature: bamboo, orchids, plum trees, chrysanthemums, flowers, landscapes, birds, fish, human figures…
With surprising simplicity, you will discover how to convey the essence of a subject using only ink, water, and a few precise strokes.
During practice, you will understand how breath influences each brushstroke and how your inner state is naturally reflected in the artwork. Over time, you will develop a greater capacity for concentration, serenity, and artistic expression.
No prior experience is necessary. The course is designed for both beginners and experienced artists who wish to go deeper into Eastern art.
