May 17, from 9:30 a.m. - 12 p.m. Kintsugi is the ancient Japanese technique of repairing ceramics with gold. In Japanese Zen aesthetics broken bowls and dishes should continue to attract our respect and attention. The broken pieces should be reassembled and glued back together with a lacquer that is inflected with gold powder. There should be no attempt to hide or disguise the breaks but rather to make something artful out of them. Kintsugi is a wonderful metaphor for life. We all experience difficulties and traumatic events in our lives. Applying Kintsugi to our lives means being bold, rather than hiding the so-called cracks and imperfections in ourselves. In this workshop you will learn a little about the history and philosophy of kintsugi repair two ceramic pieces to take home learn to embellish your pieces using both old mica powders and gold leaf colors. Students will also receive complete instructions and a supply list, as well as receiving a sample of your choice of three gold mica powder colors. Feel free to bring in your own piece for me to look at and give you some advice on. We MAY NOT in all likelihood, repair your piece during class, but you will get good insight on how to procced at home. All materials are included. Students will learn two distinct ways of highlighting the breaks of their provided ceramic pieces and will take home a unique piece. Ages 17+ are welcome. • Military, first responders and sibling discounts • Scholarships available Visit: Kintsugi | Embracing Imperfection San Diego Craft Collective on Instagram and Facebook
