Chaco Terada Abstract Photography
Japanese, b. 1963
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.
