Kintsugi is based on ancient Japanese philosophy, where nothing really breaks. Using the Kintsugi technique, artists combine broken ceramics with gold and silver to create works that bear the uniqueness of life. This 500-year tradition, offers a valuable life lesson beyond giving broken objects the functions they lose.
Kintsugi is an art that produces hopeful life metaphors, pointing out that breaking is not actually a deterioration or disappearance, but a new form of existence.
Kintsugi is also interesting in a way that it reveals that a broken plate, when valued and worked on, can become an extraordinary proof of positive thinking. With Kitsugi, the traces of the brokenness are not hidden, but rather emphasized.
