Yuri
Fujiwara

Yuri Fujiwara was born in 1986 in Saga prefecture, Japan. I started learning Calligraphy at 6 years old.I’m writing ancient Chinese characters(that are called “pictograph”). They were created about 3000 or more years ago, carved into metal, bones and tortoise carapaces.
What I’m writing in my pieces is the characters carved into metal such as bronze-ware that were used for festivals at the time.These documents carved into metal are formal, like a contract or the official record of a dynasty etc. They aren’t deciphered completely yet.
They are kind of primitive, magical and powerful, I was fascinated by them at the first sight.What I want to do the most is making Japanese calligraphy 'pop art'.
I participate some group exhibitions, in most cases, in Tokyo.
