Celebrate imperfections by transforming broken pieces into beautiful golden art.
Learn to celebrate life’s imperfections with this Kintsugi workshop that cherishes the philosophy of Kintsugi, in repairing broken pottery with dried gold powder to mosaic together into an art that symbolises the strength of the piece and the story behind its genesis.
Kintsugi encourages us to value flaws and find faith in the possibility of repair when something breaks. Learn Kintsugi in an art studio.
Under the guidance of an experienced Kintsugi artist, you will choose, break and mend various ceramic pieces in a state of peace.
As the final step of the process, you will apply the gold powder and take your creation home
