It was really cool to see the Japanese Aesthetics lecture for the second time. It helped me remember a lot of the elements that I hadn’t thought about in a long time and I learned a lot of new information too. I find the idea of centering art around the imperfections and highlighting them as a thing of beauty because, for me, it is so easy to get stuck making art that seems conventionally beautiful. I was especially fascinated by Kintsugi, which is where gold is used to mend broken ceramics and other objects. The way the imperfections are highlighted so obviously is the complete opposite of most repairs which try to hide seams and cracks. I think that considering some of the elements of Japanese Aesthetics would really benefit my art by making it seem more natural and organic, as well as helping me be looser with my process.
