Kintsugi is the ancient Japanese art of repairing broken pottery with gold. 🌟Instead of hiding cracks, chips or breakages, Kintsugi asks us to see the beauty instead of the brokenness. 💫 We can extend this to ourselves. We are beautiful even when we feel broken. 💖 Dating back to as early as the Jōmon period (14,000-300 BCE), broken areas were traditionally mended using lacquer dusted or mixed with powdered gold. 🧈 In this workshop, we will be smashing ceramic pieces and then repairing them with super glue and gold paint. Cracks and chips will be filled with gold paint thus turning something broken into a beautiful piece of art. 💎 Our aim is to coat the cracks with two layers of paint. If you aren’t able to finish these layers, you’ll be provided with gold paint to finish at home. Bowls will be provided, but please feel free to bring a ceramic item (coffee cup/plate/pot) from home that is old/chipped/broken that you'd like to smash and repair. Note: This experience is not Kintsugi in the traditional sense. You will be using gold paint instead of gold leaf, and other substitutions to make the experience affordable and decrease the session time that may not follow the traditional "Kintsugi" materials. Pictures are for representation, if you click the "book now" button you can browse the different ticket and color options available.
