I was lucky enough to be able to take an afternoon class with master Kiyokawa and his amazing apprentice in his Kyoto workshop a couple of years ago. It was a precious and rare experience to be able to receive what they were so kind to share with us.

What a beautiful concept that represents all things; the process of being broken and then born anew to become stronger and even more beautiful.

"Try not to hide what you've gone through and your history, even if it was a big accident." I love this, and it makes me think so much about plastic surgery and other things people go through to hide themselves of their history

"All of us develop scars throughout our lives. But these scars should never be hidden. Our imperfections can be the birth of something new." Kintsugi is my absolute favorite art form since I cover lots of topics about the importance of mental health and self-improvement. Wish I could practice this one day soon.

Some of the ceramics -- especially the black glazed ceramics -- look even better with the gold compound!

This is how I view my past, yes I was broken, yes I have scars, but now I embrace my flaws

I’ve known about kintsugi for a bit, but this vid had me in tears. The part about the lacquer having to harden before you can put gold on it really got to me. It really does take time. Y’all out here really making me cry on my lunch break while I’m just trying to eat my crackers. 🖤

I love the philosophy of fixing the 'cracked pots' :) it gives me a good feeling to restore something to make it re-usable and rejuvenated, while not hiding it's past.

The art of perfecting imperfections. Somehow I feel very hopeful that this is happening somewhere in the world.

Kintsugi, which uses lacquer and gold dust to restore vessels, is a traditional technique that has been passed down in Japan since ancient times. Kintsugi is a practical technique for repairing broken vessels. In fact, lacquer is used to connect pieces, so gold is a decorative item that enhances the appearance. And since it is gold powder, it is not expensive. In the days when there weren't many things, the idea of ​​"repairing broken things and using them again" was the norm. The Japanese value that "things have their soul" born from Zen, Shinto, and Buddhism is important, and then the wonderful technique of "Kanatsugi" appears. Kintsugi was evaluated as art during the Muromachi period, including the Sengoku period (civil war). The concept of Wabisabi was completed around this time. So, recently, there are people who intentionally break vessels to make Kintsugi, which is completely different from the idea of ​​Kintsugi. The most important thing is to use each vessel carefully.

Beautiful Country, people, and art! My first international trip from Kansas City back in the day was to Japan. I was treated so well--the first of many amazing experiences there.

This video resonated within me so much that I'm crying. I'm 1/2 Japanese born in Tokyo. My mother was full Japanese. I've never heard of this and watching this video made me realize that I live this way. All my life I've had people try to change me. Wear makeup, dye my hair, act this way or that, don't do this or that. I've been told so many times to do this or that, act this way or that, not worthy, a disappointment, wear makeup........ I've been broken into little pieces and big pieces almost all my life. And each time, I picked up the pieces and put them back together again. I always tell people that my face, my scars, wrinkles etc., tells the story of who I am. And now, I'm Oba-san and I will tell my grandson about not only my life, but the lives of those who've touched my heart and those that hurt. But most of all, love yourself.
