In Japanese culture, there's a philosophy that imperfections should be embraced, and this is embodied in the centuries-old art of kintsugi, in which gold lacquer is used to repair ceramics. Rather than hiding the cracks, this visible act of mending illuminates them, creating something beautiful out of what was once broken. Capturing imaginations across the world, this is your chance to absorb the history of kintsugi and its modern evolution with artist and academic Halle O'Neal as you enact the practice yourself. Kintsugi kits provided.
