As a unique form of artistic expression through written language, calligraphy has evolved over thousands of years, closely intertwining with the emotions and thoughts of the writer, and developing rich artistic connotations.

The theme "INKFINITY" signifies the endless possibilities for the development of calligraphy art. Through this medium, Taiwan is fortunate to hold a place in the global calligraphy art scene, inheriting and promoting the essence of Chinese character calligraphy. This exhibition aims to inspire greater attention and love for calligraphy art, and to provoke thoughts on the classical heritage of calligraphy culture and its many possibilities.
