Born and raised in Japan, Kisyuu started learning calligraphy when she was seven and was given a calligraphy master name, “Kisyuu,” from her master at age 18. She has been working on her calligraphy installations, exhibitions, live performances, custom logo design, and commissioned art works, as she wishes to build a bridge through art to connect dots. Kisyuu creates big pieces of calligraphy art during her live performances. She uses a variety of brushes which are up to 100cm long to create her art.
Japanese calligraphy is known as a quiet, delicate art, but here she shows the possibility and a new aspect of Japanese calligraphy which is dynamic and lively.

 土曜、午後2時〜2時半、ファイヤーホール劇場 (と森ゆに)   
  日曜、午後4時〜4時半、ストリートステージ  
日本で生まれ育った姫洲は、7歳で書道を始め、18歳の時に師匠 から書道家としての筆名(姫洲)をつけられました。さまざまな分 野の橋渡しをするため、書道のインスタレーション、展示、実演、ロ ゴ・デザイン、顧客への作品づくりに励んできました。パウエル祭 では、大筆による実演をします。使用する筆は最大100cmの物を 含め、さまざまです。日本の書道は、静かで繊細な芸術として知 られていますが、姫洲は書道のダイナミックで生き生きとした新 しい側面を披露します。
