Kintsugi, the ancient Japanese art of repairing broken pottery with gold, is a practice deeply rooted in the philosophy of wabi-sabi, which finds beauty in imperfection and impermanence.

back in the game with a bit of insanely last minute holiday rush. i've been busy slapping the shit out of some lovely new cups, tea bowls and yunomis with about 45 in total now nearly dry enough to bisque late tomorrow or Wednesday;

you're simply not living until you betch slap some shetbag clay!

and that little mishap with glaze in the kiln? got to play surgery earlier and successfully extracted the mess

it was that wonderful blue/green crystal glaze, but when most any fluid glass makes contact with kiln brick, it's a bubbly corrosive nightmare. saved some souvenirs to commemorate the first dip shit damage 😑

however, this provided a good time to patch some nuisance cracks that have been causing concern lately plus other fine tuning and maintenance to keep this giant crucible chugging along smoothly! my go-to shop was out of kiln patch compound but with most anything ceramics, such things can be made from source materials, and i found a great and simple refractory [doesn't melt even beyond 2400°f] brick patch!

so my yet-to-be-officially-named baby is currently running a quick bisque temp firing to seal the deal before going full speed ahead during the next week. beginning to mentally prepare for a breathless glazing marathon later this week.

there's gonna be a lot of unicorn cum just ahead...

Yet again I find myself thinking about kintsugi as a metaphor for healing a broken heart

broken like pottery not shattered like glass

yep, I lied. setting up a new glaze firing for 8 new crystalline glazes without testing them out first before moving my studio and entire life! haphazard choices can bring about both mayhem and brilliant discovery, sometimes all at once. bring it on 😈

also giving some previous work a second dip in the fires of hell (2300°f to be exact), after grinding down what is the most unusual glaze defect i've created despite my test of the same recipe acting far nicer. fingers crossed this does something better lol.

roll those dice and dive into wherever they land
