DESCRIPTION:One-day practical session in the Ashmolean Learning Studio\nTi
 ckets are £105 each. Booking is eesential\n\nWith Sascha Akhtar\, poet an
 d translator\n\nWork with poet and translator Sascha Akhtar\, to produce a
 semic poems\, which explore meaning beyond language.\n\nThe ‘asemic’ r
 efers to forms of communication and expression that use a visual lexicon.\
 n\nSascha will guide you through the Pat Suet-Bik Hui & The Three Perfecti
 onists exhibition in Gallery 11\, looking at examples of poetry\, calligra
 phy and painting.\n\nInspired by this exhibition\, you will then have a ch
 ance to create asemic poems yourself before connecting your newfound pract
 ical knowledge to the Chinese artistic tradition during an in-depth study 
 session. \n\nThe importance of calligraphy to Chinese art has meant that w
 riting has always functioned as a visual medium\, bridging the gap between
  the painterly brushstroke and the poetic word.\n\nThis movement of writin
 g beyond the meaning of words will be further connected to Chinese philoso
 phies of nature\, where a true understanding of reality requires a silent\
 , non-linguistic perception of the formal unity of mind and world.
