Kintsugi Workshop – The Stroll gallery x Toki Nashiki

There is a common misconception that Kintsugi involves joining pieces with metal. In fact, Kintsugi is a technique in which raw lacquer (the sap of lacquer trees) is used to repair fragments or fill gaps. After drying, lacquer is solid, heat-resistant, acid-base-resistant, making it ideal for repairing food utensils and tableware.

| Open to all experience levels, learn the authentic Japanese art through traditional techniques, explore the beauty of imperfection as a new beginning.

<金繼課>
很多剛認識金繼的朋友都以為金繼是用金屬把碎片連接。其實金繼是漆藝中的一門工藝，以生漆（漆樹的汁液）黏合碎片或填補缺口。漆乾固後十分堅硬且耐熱耐酸鹼，十分適合用來修補食器。
無論你是初學還是已有經驗，一同探索日本傳統陶瓷修復工藝，從不完美的裂痕中發掘賦予新的美感，迎來新的起點。
