Sho Ha Hito Nari: Brushes, strokes and a reflection of self
summary
Claims a concrete method: disciplined practice turns inner state into visible strokes and the work tests that — 14 years of training and an award at 15, experiments with brush types (starts on horsehair then moves to sheep hair brush), ink mixing and aging (Sumi shows different tones after 6–15 years), paper reaction (handmade washi) and seals, large-scale live outcomes (a suspended 5.5m by 4m piece), and multimedia performances with dancers, taiko and AV to see whether the vision actually reads.
