Kei Shimizu's Virtual exhibition held

Many thanks to the many visitors who viewed
Kei Shimizu's virtual exhibition 「 HAVE A GOOD DAY」
from 28 March to 11 April.

～ Message from Kei Shimizu ～
The Japanese calligraphy is our peace of mind
for having a good day.
It makes us face ourselves and relax, restore our energy.
For that reason,
Japanese people used to live with "calligraphy,"
which is made from letters and words.
And now, we have felt the scare of pandemic in the world.
That’s why I think that we need our life
with Japanese calligraphy.
Let's live with a piece of calligraphy for everyday life.
I pray everybody in the world will be happy.
