Why is calligraphy different from modern Chinese characters?

Because there are many strokes in traditional Chinese characters, writing is not easy to be thin, and it has obvious advantages over simplified Chinese characters in structure and composition. Calligraphy is an art, and for the pursuit of art, it is understandable that calligraphers like traditional Chinese characters, which is different from the nature of ordinary applied characters.

Although traditional Chinese characters have been simplified for many years, now we learn simplified Chinese characters from childhood. However, China's writing is extensive and profound, with a long history, and traditional Chinese characters represent China's 5,000-year history and culture. As a traditional art form, calligraphy is not restricted by the need to use standardized Chinese characters. When we study and practice calligraphy, we are faced with the copybooks of ancient literati, who write traditional Chinese characters. Therefore, in terms of artistic achievements, traditional Chinese characters are natural and graceful, which has high artistic value and effect and is more vivid, which is also the common sense of calligraphy art.
