Modern Kintsugi CT
This session takes place in Connecticut.
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.

Bianca Valencia is a Connecticut born artist specializing in fine art and illustration. Her illustration work leans towards surrealism and abstract expressionism with a highly concentrated focus on the exploration of dreams, theology, and the ontology of the self. The concentration of Bianca’s paintings respond to the aesthetic energy of abstract expressionism with its active movement towards work in which the gesture of the artist’s hand or process is highly evident in the final compositions as the work explores theological cosmology and the act of making.
