KANJI TOKYO also exhibits and sells works created by calligraphy artist Madara.
The art of MADARA is deeply shaped by the life he has lived.
His works carry the strength to stay true to his feelings and the quiet power of holding those feelings close.
People who share those emotions—or who connect with the hope and dreams that lie beyond them—are drawn to his art.Since early childhood, MADARA spent nearly every waking moment drawing.
He began practicing calligraphy at the age of five, always finding ways to express himself through both painting and calligraphy.
Life, however, brought many trials.
In the Great East Japan Earthquake of 2011, MADARA lost her home, her job, and many of her precious relatives and cousins, and was unable to continue her creative work for a while.
Even so, he overcame the grief and started creating again, determined to open a new path.
Please take time to experience his works and feel the journey and spirit within them.
