About this Event
Kintsugi Workshop: Restoring Through Brokenness
Kintsugi; the Japanese art of repairing broken pottery with gold, teaches us that cracks and fractures can become sites of beauty, strength, and renewal. In this hands-on workshop, we explore Kintsugi not only as a creative practice but as a powerful metaphor for healing and restoring parts of ourselves.
Through the mindful process of piecing together what is broken, we reflect on our own journeys of loss, resilience, and transformation. Just as Kintsugi honours the story of an object rather than hiding its damage, this practice invites us to embrace our imperfections and see them as a source of wisdom and strength.
Come join us in this gentle space of creativity and reflection, where brokenness becomes a pathway to wholeness, connection, and hope. This workshop will be delivered by the founder of Voicing the Void, Rory Doherty.
No artistic experience is needed; simply curiosity and a willingness to explore. All materials will be provided.
Workshop part supported by ‘the Community Relations Council’.
This event is part of Voicing the Void’s - 'Restorative Storytelling Festival: Acts of Survival'. With 22 events over seven days, the festival creates space to take part, listen, and learn – with something to inspire everyone.
