The infinite variety of the circle

March 3, 2024 Hanna Biedermann

This day will be a creative time-out, something special for the heart and soul.

The circle is something fascinating. The circle can be interpreted in many ways and is constantly changing. As we delve deeper into the subject, we will see how inexhaustible the possibilities are. The circle stands there in all its purity. A bristly brush penetrates it with ink, provoking a transformation. An impulsive escape from the circle, the writing swirls through the air. Different emotions come up, calm, impetuous, wild. Emotions are the driving force behind the expression.

Compositions with a modern calligraphic font that swirls in the wind of the circle. Or with a historical font that creates calm, e.g. with the uncial. And it is precisely such changes that are at issue, whether through different devices, materials or collage elements. An interplay of circular interpretations combined with calligraphy. Intuitive designs, experiencing the artistic freedom in which one’s own individuality becomes visible. I will give dedicated support to all participants according to their needs, whether in practicing modern calligraphic writing or the uncial, or in refreshing a font of their choice. Create your own expressive calligraphic circle picture, your personal unique piece! Course leader: Hanna BiedermannContact: Phone 061 322 5636 / Mobile: 079 311 72 61 / E-Mail: hanna@kalligraphie-hb.ch For more information about me and my wide range of calligraphy courses and services, please feel free to visit my website: www.kalligraphie-hb.ch
