• Paleisstraat 107 - Step into the captivating realm of Kintsugi, a Japanese art that restores beauty to flaws using golden leaf glue.

Originating in the 15th century, Kintsugi rejuvenates cracked pottery, transforming fractures into intricate golden designs. In harmony with modern design trends, it honors imperfection, natural materials, and craftsmanship. Our workshops celebrate the beauty in flaws, inspired by Japanese wabi-sabi.

Experience highlights:

• A calming introduction sets the mood.
• Break a plate symbolically, representing a new beginning.
• Carefully reassemble the pieces, observing their transformation into something uniquely beautiful.

Participate in this hands-on activity to discover deep focus, enhance motor skills, and gain insights applicable to everyday life. Kintsugi is more than art; it’s a metaphor for letting go, embracing new beginnings, and finding beauty in resilience.

This immersive journey goes beyond simple repair, exploring healing wounds, uncovering meaning in scars, and celebrating the profound beauty in life’s imperfections. Join us for a creative, mindful exploration of the imperfect – a genuine expression of the art of Kintsugi.
