Korean calligrapher Kim Do-im will offer a unique K-Calligraphy & Meditation Class at the Terrace 194 rooftop lounge of Courtyard by Marriott Seoul Myeongdong starting Monday. The 120-minute session will commence at 6:30 p.m., merging traditional Korean calligraphy with meditation practices, encouraging attendees to discover personal significance through artistic expression.
Kim, known for her ink and brush calligraphy, often explores themes like love and life in her works. She creates using Hangeul, the Korean alphabet, employing traditional calligraphy techniques. Kim has showcased her talents in 11 solo exhibitions and over 100 group exhibitions in Korea and abroad.
The special program aims to provide a calming retreat from the fast-paced city life. By participating, attendees will learn to slow down and break away from their hectic schedules. The program embodies Kim's belief that "repetition is not simply doing the same thing again, but a way to notice how we change from one moment to the next."
The class begins with a warm welcome and a viewing of Kim's artwork. Following this, participants will engage in breathing meditation, ink grinding, and Korean cursive-style calligraphy.
