Workshop Details
Kintsugi is the Japanese art of repairing broken pottery using gold. As a philosophy, it treats breakage and repair as part of the history of an object, rather than something to disguise. An ancient technique that resonates perfectly with the sustainable practices of today, an opportunity to embrace imperfection and celebrate repair.
During this two hour work shop, you will learn the basics of the kintsugi technique and have a chance to try these techniques for yourself under our guidance. You will be given your own Kintsugi repair kit to use during the evening and to take away with you to work on future Kintsugi projects. You will have the opportunity to work on two different pieces on the night so that you can fully explore your new skills and practice your techniques. At the end of the workshop you will be able to take your pieces away with you to treasure for years to come.
You don't need to have any previous experience or special skills to take part and enjoy this workshop, it has not been designed to make you an expert in Kintsugi (that takes years), but these basic techniques will allow you to beautifully repair objects at home and the more you practice the more you will be able to achieve.
Practising the art of Kintsugi is a very relaxing mindful experience that you may find you get hooked on!
