As its name suggests, zentangle is a Zen practice inspired by Mahayana Buddhism emphasizing the value of meditation and intuition. It is an American-born drawing technique based on strings and circles, filling spaces with simple yet repetitive strokes, demonstrating beauty in a complicated picture. People can enter a meditative state through creating zentangle patterns, therefore it is also known as ‘yoga for the brain’.
Join us to for a zentangle experience to repose, rekindle your spirit and unleash your inner strength.

在「Zentangle」一詞中,「Zen」是「禪」的音譯,「Tangle」則是指纏繞式的繪畫方法,中文稱之為「禪繞畫」。美國一對藝術家夫婦,受大乘佛教禪修的啓發,創出這門藝術。利用針筆、鉛筆、紙筆等簡單工具,於紙張上運用線條元素重複繪畫圖案,創造不同的藝術作品。同時「禪繞畫」可以助人進入沉思的狀態,所以又被喻為「腦部瑜伽」。
在禮拜五晚上,和我們一起創作「禪繞畫」,好好歇息,整頓心靈,重拾力量。
