Golden Repair Café: The Art of Kintsugi

About this event

Join me for Golden Repair Café. A creative space to repair not just ceramics but other loved items with gold.
Inspired by the art of Kintsugi (golden joinery), where we delicately mend broken pieces of ceramic with a touch of gold, this workshop invites you to slow down, reconnect with your treasured objects, and transform them.

Bring along a broken ceramic object, a cherished item, or a piece of clothing in need of repair — you’ll be guided through the process of mending it with a selection of shining, golden, shimmering materials.

A selection of pre-loved pieces for repair will also be provided.
This Repair Café offers a chance to repair your object beyond its previous life. You could simply mend a chip — or could it become a piece of art? A unique gift for yourself or a loved one?

Please note:

Items broken into many small pieces will be difficult to repair. If you have something in mind and want to check if it can be repaired, please send Lorena an email with a photo of your piece: bluesunceramics@gmail.com. Please handle any sharp edges with care!

Resin used in this workshop for ceramic pieces is decorative and not safe for food use. Could your plate hang in your kitchen as a piece of art? Could your cup become your new favourite pen pot?
