Description
Summary:When researching on this topic, the very first thing that I remembered was Kintsugi, the art of mending pottery with gold, and from there on it led me to Wabi-Sabi, which came from Zen Buddhism, and then on led me to Taoism.

This project aims to question the stereotype of imperfections and hopefully bring about a change in perspective of imperfections, that by living in harmony with our imperfections then can we reach our greater potential.
