LLART 171 - Kintsugi-Style Jewelry

Give new life to beloved fragments in this thoughtful jewelry-making class inspired by the Japanese art of kintsugi. Using modern materials like epoxy and putty you'll transform broken or missing pieces--stones, gems, heirloom parts--into wearable works of art. Guided by the philosophy of honoring imperfections, you'll create a one-of-a-kind piece that tells a story of resilience and beauty. Bring your own cherished items to incorporate, and leave with a deeper connection to your materials, your memories, and the art of repair.
