Shodō, which translates to "the way of writing," is much more than putting ink on paper. Shodō is also about the artist's spirit, emotion, discipline, and sophistication. Discover the meditative aspect of this art form and watch as a skilled calligrapher gracefully wields their brush to transform strokes into profound expressions of beauty and balance.
