TITLE: Kintsigi MEDIUM: Mixed Media Size: 48" x 36" When a part of you breaks with good intentions, I've learned it often leads to something even more captivating than before. Canvases, to me, yearn for those unexpected tears and punctures; they've held my fascination for over 15 years. Once, someone asked me about a canvas adorned with such "imperfections," wondering if anger drove my hand. Quite the opposite. I see these fractures as the essence of our true beauty. In the realm of Japanese art, there's Kintsugi, a practice that resonates deeply with me. It's about repairing broken pottery with gold or other precious metals, highlighting the beauty of the imperfections and the rich history they carry. It's a powerful reminder that our scars and flaws are not blemishes but rather marks of resilience and growth. Comments are closed.
