Our Story

Ink 墨
One of the most unique features of Chinese calligraphy and painting is the use of ink. Ancient Chinese artists believed in the concept of “Greatness in Simplicity,” and they created a rich and wonderful world just by using ink and water.
Moon 月
Tang Dynasty poet Zhang Ruoxu described in his well-known “Spring River in the Flower Moon Night” poem, a scene of a young lady missing her beloved who was far away. When she saw the bright moon in the sky, she knew he was seeing the same moon at the same moment, and she hoped that her thoughts for him would be transmitted by the light of the moon.
Chinese people believe that two people, wherever they are, can be emotionally connected by the moon.
Ink + Moon = InkMoon 墨月
Ink, a seemingly simple medium, is used to create large-scale masterpieces. In the same way, our classes are especially designed so that you can enjoy the intricate world of Chinese art. Join us as we engage in rich cultural dialogue.
