Celebrating Calligraphy is an exhibition that combines lettering, words and design from members of the Calligraphy Society of South Australia (CSSA).
2023 marks a significant milestone for the society as it is their 40th anniversary. The artworks displayed are examples of the diversity and skill within this creative group.
To celebrate this achievement members have been working on a collaborative group project consisting of alphabet letters which has been created into a poster that will be part of the exhibition.
Other featured artwork includes 2D and 3D pieces and are examples of the myriad of lettering styles and principles practiced in the group. The images explore the extensive range of writing tools and techniques that scribes have used for hundreds of years, including the pointed pen, broad-edge nib, inks, paints and pencils.
