Saren Nagata

Saren Nagata was born in 1981 in Chiba prefecture and apparently started developing an interest in calligraphy at only 3 years old! She left high school at the age of 15 to begin training as a calligrapher, qualified in 2002 and obtained her licence to practise in 2003. In 2005 Saren wrote a delightful book 'Here I am' and has since exhibited her highly aclaimed work widely, including at the Hotel Nikko in Tokyo in 2011 where we first discovered her fresh and contemporary designs.
