Narratives of Imperfection
View through CrossRef
Narratives of Imperfection is a series of explorations on repair, healing and transformation. The exhibition shows selected works that are part of a long term research with Kin Tsugi. This technique is a 16th century Japanese craft of visually mending broken ceramics where the crack or fault is emphasized and embellished rather than hidden. Kin Tsugi follows the philosophy of Wabi-sabi – a world view centered around the acceptance of transience and imperfection; beauty is “imperfect, impermanent, and incomplete.”Traditionally, Kin Tsugi shines beautifully gold or silver; underneath it uses urushi, a plant-based adhesive. Narratives of Imperfection expands the concept and practice of Kin Tsugi with different materials.
