Wish Wings Studio

Jeff Fan, a youthful, Sydney-based Chinese Calligraphy and Brush Painting artist, and a former acting president of the Australian Oriental Calligraphy Society, and member of the China Hunan Calligraphers Association, has been studying, practising and creating calligraphy and painting for more than 33 years.

Jeff has published several articles on Chinese calligraphy. He participates and co-organises Chinese calligraphy exhibitions every year, his works are collected by many companies in Sydney and China. Nowadays, Jeff’s works become more and more popular in Sydney because of the positive, powerful and unique personal expression.

Wish Wings Studio aims to deliver Chinese traditional folk arts, Chinese contemporary arts, visual culture and Chinese traditional martial arts in an engaging way to an Australian audience. Through various programmes including training courses, exhibitions, events, residencies, collaborations and research projects we attempt to enrich the cultural landscape of Australia through oriental artistic diversity.

Our aims are:

• To encourage a larger mainstream audience to engage with Chinese arts, and to avoid overly traditional representations of Chinese culture and folklore
• To advance the education of the public in traditional Chinese arts and culture
• To enhance the visibility of the Chinese artistic community
• To act as an agency for Chinese arts in Australia, and to become an international agency for Chinese artworks
• To develop a unique collection, and exhibition platform, of Chinese artworks

We focus on:

• Chinese Calligraphy (all levels)
• Chinese Traditional Ink Painting
• Chinese Tai Chi - and Plum flower boxing (mei-hua-quan)
