About the event
Join us for a unique 2-hour workshop exploring Modern Kintsugi, a contemporary interpretation of the traditional Japanese art of repairing broken pottery with shades of gold, silver, or platinum. This practice goes beyond simply fixing an object—it's about embracing imperfections and transforming them into beautiful, meaningful features.
In this hands-on session, we’ll chat about the fascinating history and philosophy behind Kintsugi whilst you work on a ceramic bowl to take home. As we dive into the concept of Wabi Sabi, the art of finding beauty in imperfection, you’ll discover modern Kintsugi techniques to continue practicing at home.
Touching on the ancient mindsets of Precision and Patience, you will focus on careful repair and allowing time for the glue to set. You’ll have the opportunity to choose from a selection of metallic powders to highlight your unique creation.
Refreshments will be provided, so come ready to relax, create, and reflect!
