Overview
Since childhood, Miki has had a unique relationship with calligraphy. Born left-handed, she was introduced to this art to learn how to write with her right hand, but what started as an exercise quickly became a passion. More than just a movement, each stroke is, for her, a quest for meaning, a silent dialogue with the poets and thinkers of the past. Follow Miki for a moment in a calligraphy session as she reflects on this art—not as a rigid practice, but as a living form, evolving alongside those who engage with it.
