Bokuseki (墨跡) is a Japanese term meaning "ink trace", and refers to a form of Japanese calligraphy and more specifically a style of zenga developed by Zen monks. Bokuseki is often characterized by bold, assertive, and often abstract brush strokes meant to demonstrate the calligrapher's pure state of mind (see Samadhi ).
Zenga is a style of Chinese and Japanese calligraphy and painting, done in ink. The term is most often used for artwork by Buddhist monks, often without formal artistic training, and is sometimes contrasted with "nanga," or "literati painting," made by scholars.
