Painting, Ink on Paper
Size: 45 W x 34 H x 1 D in
Japanese calligraphy on paper. The title shows the meaning of the written word, 美, beauty. The word [美](beauty) is consists of [羊](sheep) and [大](great/big). [羊]represents animal sheep, and [大] represents man stretching out one's arms, which means great. Combining these two, this character shows a big and great sheep. In ancient China, sheep were the most important livestock, and a great and beautiful, and delicious concept was born. In Japan, Wabi-Sabi is known as one of the unique aesthetic concepts. Zen thought underlaying this concept of beauty. In Zen, people find beauty in simplicity, transience, imperfection, and humbleness. The work is paneled, which is supported by a wooden board. Metal hooks are attached to the back, and ready to hang on the wall.

Japan
He is a Japanese calligraphy artist based in Kyoto, Japan. Not wanting to blindly follow the normal patterns of calligraphy, Wada aims at exploring the new expressions of classical Japanese Calligraphy that can appeal to our aesthetic appreciation even outside of the settings of classical Japanese Calligraphy. Instead of siding with Japanese ‟avant-garde calligraphy”, almost formless formative art with Indian ink, his works retain the functional aspect of calligraphy, thus being more readable and comprehensive. While those who receive the traditional training of calligraphy must go through "rinsho", which is equivalent to the training of dessin in the old art academies, Wada tries to free himself of his long training and draw joyously and innocently like a child. Even so, the lines of characters should be progressive but readable. He tries to realize his welled-up passion into minimal art. This is the calligraphy style he wishes to achieve.
