Join us at Holdfast Bay Community Centre for a Kintsugi inspired workshop, make art and gently smash the idea of perfection !Are you looking to CELEBRATE and SAVOUR the JOYOUS moments in life, to practise more self care and be well?
Do you struggle with the need for life, relationships, family or work... to be P E R F E C T ?
Perhaps you feel scared to risk failure, of taking the next step and leaping into the unknown, and maybe this fear is keeping you stuck.
What if you could make art to release some of that stress and worry and fear, and dip your toe into uncertainty.
What if you could Embrace Imperfection and make art as way to practise being ok with things not turning out the way you planned?
Join us at ’Holdfast Bay Community Centre' in Activity Room 2, for a fun, engaging and messy art workshop, where we will create 2 art-works inspired by the Japanese philosophy of Kintsugi, and transform our fear of imperfection into a CELEBRATION of repair, resiliency and personal growth.
It is through our mistakes, failures and from falling down, that we learn to rise, to grow and discover more about ourselves.
At this workshop you will be guided step by step to:
1. Paint a personalised Kintsugi inspired painting on canvas using acrylic paint and gold leaf
2. Gently smash a bowl, plate or cup, and mend Kintsugi style’, u sing a hot glue gun and gold leaf.
You are welcome to bring along a favourite chipped cup, plate or bowl, to mend 'Kintsugi' style, or select one from our collection on the day.
Kintsugi ( golden joinery ) is the Japanese art of repairing broken pottery with lacquer dusted or mixed with powdered gold, silver, or platinum, a method similar to the maki-e technique. As a philosophy, it treats breakage and repair as part of the history of an object, rather than something to disguise
This will be a welcoming and safe space to connect with others,
make mistakes, EMBRACE IMPERFECTIONS and most importantly to laugh and have fun.
