She is widely active, involving herself in
workshop and the design of logos for shops and products as well as advertising lettering.

書家・田中雅子は、書くことを通じて人と人とのつながり、
生きる喜び、愛、そして絆を豊かに表現します。
墨より粘度の高いアクリル絵の具やシルクインクを使用し、

深く向き合う濃密な時間をもたらします。

Words Blooming in Full Glory
Masako TANAKA is a calligrapher whose writings connect people and richly express the joys of living, as well as the love and bonds between individuals.
Using acrylic paints and silk ink of a higher viscosity than Japanese ink, she applies her sense of balance acquired through long years of experience in the martial arts.
These combine to produce a dynamic expression that frees the viewer from what is stereotypical, providing the viewer with the time to plainly observe one’s own existence in the universe.
In 2008, her work was selected for the Nitten Exhibition. Triggered by her experience with breast cancer, TANAKA established her original “hanasho” style of writing which communicates the energy of space and color itself.
Through hanasho, she calms the heart of viewers and guides them to a bright future.
