Welcome to Fast and Slow Studios

The core idea behind our Fast and Slow philosophy is that body movement creates painting. So often in painting or calligraphy, our eyes and our thoughts overtake the rest of the body, and our starting point to painting or writing calligraphy has always been about the movement and its connection to the body and mind. In our calligraphy, we focus on the flow of movements connecting the brushstrokes to construct a character.

We use the moving body as a medium to explore painting, calligraphy, and creative art forms to help us reach a state of mind-body connection. We use somatic methods inspired by yoga, post-modern dance, and kinesthetic awareness to help us become more aware of our bodies as we are exploring artistic expressions that enter in dialogue with our body.

The term Fast and Slow was originally inspired by a book called Thinking Fast and Slow by Daniel Kahneman. The idea of fast and slow refers not only to the fast and slow movements of the body, but also in the way we feel the rhythm of life - fast and slow.
