Purchase paper to wrap my designs.
First meeting.
Then the look and the touch change.
I make garlands of characters hanging from each other, like we ourselves are each to other.
The rest of my adventure with paper continued with ink.

The beginnings of ink?
Adolescence, a box of ink stick, stone, brushes and small accessories bought in a department store for the Chinese New Year.

This box has always followed me, I took years to open it and then to try the experiment.
Sometimes we have a presentiment of objects that do take their place and their meaning in our lives only many years later.

One day again stones, ink sticks and gift brushes from China and then Japan.

Travel, meetings; the need to transform all that, to give it shape.

Ongoing project around trips to Japan; pictures, words, colors and inks.
