Modern Kintsugi UK
The art of Kintsugi embodies new beauty made through imperfections. It’s an artistry of mending broken pieces, symbolically representing how brokenness in our lives can transform to places of beauty and power. Instead of hiding chipped and broken parts,when imperfections are pronounced with the gold, symbolizing the light, you behold something that’s more beautiful. It’s an art form of mending to make new. In this Gather, we’ll have an open time to share personal discovery with each other as we apply Kintsugi to a piece we’ve each brought with us. We’ll share a time of personal reflection and beholding through working with our hands.
Please do not break things to bring. Instead, look for cracked, chipped, and broken ceramics you already have. No glass, please.

Charlie Kang is a Korean-British multi-disciplinary artist, pastor, photographer and creative producer based in the UK. His working life has moved between pastoral ministry, a season exploring monastic living in a prayer community, and the practical work of bringing creative ideas to life. From studying law to pastoring a church, his creativity has found expression in many forms, often in unexpected places, and photography has been the one constant throughout; a discipline that invites stillness into the pace of everyday life.
As a practitioner of the contemporary form of Kintsugi, Charlie wants to help others discover the light that accompanies every shadow of life.
