無聲樂  Silent Music    Calligraphy, like music, follows rhythm and flow. Each brushstroke echoes movement and emotion — a silent composition, heard not by the ears but resonates in the heart.

無聲樂 - Traditional Calligraphy Exhibition in Phuket

The works presented in this exhibition are based on a lineage of teachings passed down through generations, beginning with Mr. Li Ruiqing (Qing Dao Ren, 清道人), founder of the Jinshi (金石派) calligraphy school, followed by Hu Xiaoshi (Xiao Shi, 小石), Zhang Longyan (Shi Zhi, 十之), and finally Mr. Yuan Jung Ping (Zhong Dao Ren, 中道人).

二零一八年起,袁安瑞受教於「曦軒」書道班中道人門下。本次展覽的幾幅作品均為自清道人至袁中平先生傳承下來的法脈。

樂者,有聲之書。」
