Twaalf tekens van de dierenriem door Seiho 1900 - 1915

This piece, titled 'Twaalf tekens van de dierenriem door Seiho' , was made by Takeuchi Seihô, although the exact date is unknown. Looking at it is like catching a glimpse of a quiet conversation between ink and paper, where the characters seem to float, suspended between intention and chance. The ink, dense and light in turns, pools and spreads in the most unpredictable way. See how each stroke varies, giving it a real feeling of movement, like the whole thing is breathing. It feels like Seihô wasn't just writing, but really thinking through the brush. Think about Franz Kline, who also let the ink and gesture dictate his compositions. Both challenge us to find meaning in the act of creation itself, and to see beauty in the process. In the end, it’s not about pinning down a single story, but about embracing all of the possibilities.
