About the Item
"My artwork is always in progress. There is not a goal. There is not a category for my work. It is all about enjoying the process of every moment.
On a blank sheet of washi calligraphy paper, I make a stroke with the brush as an extension of my arm and hand done in one spontaneous movement. Not necessarily to compose words but just enjoying the feeling of being one with my tools – paper, brush, ink and my spirit. There is no right or wrong. Mistakes do not exist. Too much ink? Too little ink? Another piece of paper can be used to absorb extra ink becoming a beautiful print. All possibilities exist.
Calligraphy on paper can be folded with delicate sensitivity by the tips of my fingers. Not necessarily to create an origami form, but just to enjoy looking at the accidental intersection of strokes on the folded paper. These lines overlay each other and the feeling changes. The stroke quality alters meeting other lines in unexpected ways, or just disappear in the folds.
Looking through the translucent folded paper at light adds another dimension to the experience of discovery. The lines cast shadows that pose for me. I click the shutter as the strokes are growing and moving – appearing and disappearing. I change the angle or the sun moves. They pose beautifully and are changing constantly. My photographs of origami and calligraphy are a dance of light, line, and the unexpected."

Chaco Terada
Chaco Terada, originally from Japan, was trained at a young age in the art of calligraphy. When Terada was in her 20s she had the opportunity to work on her calligraphy in ten countries as a part of the cultural exchange programs, Up with People and The Ship for World Youth. When her time with those groups ended she moved to the United States, where she discovered photography and started incorporating it with calligraphy. Terada has led demonstrations and has taught calligraphy workshops at the Dallas Museum of Art, The Crow Asian Art Museum, Greenhill School, and Saint Mark’s School of Texas among others. Terada’s artwork has been exhibited in Dallas, Santa Fe, New York and Los Angeles and Paris.

practiced since childhood. I take a line from one character, and when that brushstroke is made it tells me where the next one should be placed. This method of working is untraditional. I have found that the details and individual lines of a character are beautiful by themselves. I may use the individual brushstrokes that form a written word, Japanese letters...
