Private Adult Party: Grief Workshop

5/18/2019

0 Comments

 
I teamed with two dear friends who are also wonderful therapists to host a workshop and art project on the topic of grief.  The project I chose was based on the Japanese are of kintsugi, in which broken pottery is repaired with gold instead of thrown away.  The paintings have a secret layer of words, a beautiful abstract background layer, and a "broken" pot whose cracks are "filled" with gold leaf.  The message is that our cracks and brokenness can be beautiful and part of our character.
