JAPANESE calligraphy will gracefully make its mark on Ross Creek Gallery next month.<\/p>\n

Ballarat calligraphy artist Seiko Hoashi will exhibit work at the bush art space as part of her exhibition, Prologue: Exploration in Abstraction and Japanese Calligraphy.<\/p>\n

The show is running from Saturday 6 July, and in her artist statement, Hoashi said she is inviting people to attend to journey through the “unfolding chapters” of her exploration of creativity.<\/p>\n

“My practice is rooted in the fusion of painterly abstraction and the disciplined strokes of Japanese calligraphy, reflecting the techniques I’ve honed over my career,” she said.<\/p>\n

“I describe my creations as visual poetry, as they are an invitation for viewers to immerse themselves in the depths of my emotions.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

“Through the intertwining of marking, writing, drawing, and painting, I seek to evoke a visceral response, drawing upon the cultural tapestry of my Australian First Nation heritage and Japanese roots.”<\/p>\n

Hoashi said her works honour and acknowledge the history of art.<\/p>\n

“[I draw] from improvisational and gestural brush techniques prevalent in 19th century European art and the large-scale, dynamic lines characteristic of the American abstraction movement in the 1950s,” she said.<\/p>\n

“It is intriguing to note that these movements drew direct inspiration from Japanese art and calligraphy, and now I find myself traversing a similar path in reverse, bridging cultural and artistic boundaries with my creations.”<\/p>\n

Prologue will run until Sunday 21 July at Ross Creek Gallery, 183 Post Office Rd, Smythes Creek. An opening event will take place Opening event will take place on 6 July, 1pm to 4pm.<\/p>\n

The gallery is open 11am to 4pm Friday to Sunday during this exhibition and by private appointment. Contact hello@rubypilven.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
