Master Calligrapher Yang-Tse

 

Master Calligrapher
Yang-Tse

The Master Calligrapher Grace Tong Yang-Tse [ 董陽孜 ]
illustrated the title of the movie Face. Her painting appears in black and white in the movie trailer.

From the Chinese original ideogram meaning Face [ ] the calligraphy adds rhythm and space.

The Master Calligrapher Yang-Tse painted for the movie poster the two last calligraphies in yellow on a black background.

In the following photomontage, the shadow of stars in background comes from the Salome's veil.

Master Calligrapher
Yang-Tse

The pen is a feeling, --a feeling--,
it is my greatest wish to hope that everyone can write,
everyone can write calligraphy,
and I have the same
joy.

Master Calligrapher Yang-Tse
National Taichung Library.

「拿筆是一種感覺、一種心情,
我最大的心願,就是希望每個人都能動筆,
每個人都能寫書法,
得到和我一樣的喜悅。」

董陽孜
