You’re so Golden

£555

93 x 75cm mixed media on Kraft paper with 24ct gold accents. Varnished. This piece is modelled on Kintsugi, hence the bold white colour, which reminds me of the fragility of porcelain. Kintsugi is the Japanese art of repairing broken pottery with lacquer to bring it back together and gold to make it shine, as the journey should be celebrated- and in this case the woman deserves to shine. GOLDEN JOURNEY She speaks to the woman who is learning to love herself again The woman who has taken the journey Walked through her shadow Shattered into a thousand pieces And rebuild herself piece by piece And somewhere in the darkness the cracks turned to gold And she became something more She became embodied and saw a new beauty One where she recognised the scars made her beautiful And she chose to shine ✨ Heart & soul ©2023
