With the help of so many warm hearts, we were given the greatest honor to share a fraction of our Japanese culture by hosting a Shodo (Calligraphy) Exhibition and a Paper Cutout Art Exhibition at “Michi Retreat” which Professor Kung established with great persistency. The location is nearby Ubud, the center of Bali’s hottest art scene.
Commonly, lessons for traditional Japanese culture have the word “Dou” (same meaning as “Michi”) in it. For instance Shodou (Calligraphy), Kadou (Flower Arrangement), Sadou (Tea Ceremony), Budou (Martial Arts) …etc are an example of the art of learning old traditions through devoting yourself into it and to come to master its way (“Michi”). To master a way means to pursue your life and your way of life through what Shodou or Kadou has to offer.
In that sense, “Michi Retreat” is one of Professor Kung’s art work, which he established through his more than 80 years of life experience.
Also, Mr. Miyashita, who continues to pursue his life through Shodou, Kadou, Sadou and Buddhism, he and Professor Kung has “Michi” as their common ground, so it will definitely be an inspiring moment when Mr. Miyashita’s art works are displayed at Professor Kung’s retreat.
The beautiful Balinese scenery surrounded by terraced rice paddies, the villa that embodies all the cultural wonders of the world inspired by Professor Kung’s experience, Mr, Miyashita’s Universe condensed in a little piece of white paper….
To be able to experience the collaboration of these three miracles will surely be one of the most wonderful moments in Bali, which you will never be able to forget.
Please relax and enjoy the beautiful scenery, the performances, the many art works on the day of the opening ceremony.
On this occasion we are thinking to hold an event like this annually at this location, and to continue to share the wonders of Japanese culture.
We would like to express our deepest appreciation towards Mr. Miyashita, Professor Kung and all our wonderful local staffs who have been working hard preparing for this exciting event.
