KINTSUGI
KINTSUGI
Originating from Japan's distinctive historical and cultural context, Kintsugi is a traditional technique for elegantly repairing broken ceramics. In Japan, a land frequently struck by natural disasters like earthquakes and typhoons, the practice of Kintsugi has evolved, symbolizing the people's resilience in overcoming challenges and emerging stronger and more beautiful. This philosophy is not just about repairing but also enhancing objects, making them stronger and more attractive than before.
Kintsugi embodies the aesthetic of "Wabi-Sabi," appreciating the beauty in imperfection and the passage of time. The "Mottainai" ethos, promoting recycling and respect for objects, has been a part of Japanese culture since the Edo period. This belief, that everything deserves a second chance and that overcoming difficulties leads to greater strength and beauty, is deeply interwoven with the Kintsugi technique and culture.
More than just a repair method, Kintsugi represents the synergy of Japanese spirit and culture, offering not only physical restoration but also therapeutic benefits and underscoring the profound bond between objects and people. As a symbol of Japan's history, culture, and spiritual fortitude, Kintsugi adds new value to broken items, making them significant in our sustainable modern world.
