Explore the Grace of Neo Kathetography with Drupad 

Step into the world of modern calligraphy with Drupad (aka BLIP) as he introduces Neo Kathetography—a unique vertical writing technique—on Friday, 4 July 2025, from 3:30 p.m. to 5:30 p.m. at TASMAI, Pondicherry. 

Calligraphy is more than just writing—it’s the art of shaping letters with beauty and intention. The word itself comes from the Greek “kallos” meaning beauty and “graphe” meaning writing. From the delicate strokes of Chinese scripts to the flowing elegance of Arabic and the classical charm of European hands, calligraphy has flourished across cultures. It transforms simple text into a visual expression, turning each letter into a work of art.

This inspiring workshop, The Art and Science of New Calligraphy, blends creativity with thoughtful expression. Guided by breath, form and sound, Drupad explores both Roman and Sanskrit alphabets, offering hands-on techniques using simple stationery.
