Chris Calvet

Chris Calvet discovered arts and crafts from his lifelong friend, Lyseth. Together they met the Iraqi calligrapher Hassan Massoudy and began collaborating on plate engravings at the age of 19. Later on, the adventure, especially during his travels to China, opened new artistic perspectives that led him to what has become an obvious choice today: the art of Chinese calligraphy. Chinese and Taoist philosophy are vast sources of inspiration for the artist. The calligraphies depicted by Chris Calvet are based on universal concepts relating to the spiritual and natural world. Each calligraphic character on the rice paper is filled with history and poetry. It is this poetry of language that inspired Chris Calvet in his artistic research.
