Introduction to Modern Kintsugi Workshop

Guided by the philosophy of Kintsugi, this workshop embraces imperfection and transformation. Using modern techniques that echo the traditional practice, which can take many weeks to complete, you will experience a mindful, hands-on repair process within a single session.Focusing on precision and patience, you will use a pre-broken bowl and choose from a range of metallic powders to personalise your piece. The session is relaxed and reflective, with space for conversation and creativity. There will be opportunities for informal discussion throughout to explore the history, theory, and techniques behind traditional Kintsugi practice, with time for questions, shared reflections, and conversation around individual approaches.You will leave this workshop with a completed Kintsugi bowl to display in your home and the foundational skills needed to continue practising and developing the technique independently, with the potential to build toward a more traditional Kintsugi practice.Please note that there will be a 20-minute break to allow drying time in this session, where you will be welcome to stretch your legs or use the on-site café while your work dries. All materials and equipment are included. Read more details
