Carrying forward the past and initiating the future
The "Ink Blots" research project was launched during the epidemic, which was also a period when Hong Kong signboards were being demolished on a large scale. In fact, whether it is wood carvings, stone carvings or neon signs, the craftsmanship must match the content and visuals; in recent years, many new signboards using computer characters are just a negative example of missing the point. "Ink" hopes to analyze Hong Kong's visual culture from the perspective of calligraphy art and preserve Hong Kong's visual culture in an academic form. It is hoped that anyone who needs to study or apply it in the future will be able to verify it and contribute to the inheritance of "Hong Kong visual culture". .

Uncovering the secrets
After four years of careful research and interviews, the detailed life stories of four calligraphers are recorded from multiple aspects for the first time, solving the rumors and mysteries that have been circulating for many years. It describes the application of calligraphy in daily life, the composition of Hong Kong’s unique visual culture, and the development of Hong Kong’s commercial culture and customs from the life of a calligrapher.

Reading books and asking questions
Many calligraphy students hope to obtain collections of works or copybooks of several predecessors to observe and study. However, due to their age, market circulation is very small, and the prices are therefore high. "Ink" spent four years recording calligraphers' works on paper, printing, and even rubbings through different channels, and compiled them into a book for the first time. The books are based on Chinese-style folded scriptures, and the large format contains high-definition works. The design is bound in a double-sided format, with the text content on the right side and the portfolio on the left side, making it convenient for calligraphy learners to examine their life information and view different works at the same time.
