Highlights
Discover the beauty in imperfection through the Modern Kintsugi Workshop, a mindful art experience inspired by the Japanese philosophy of mending broken pottery with gold. This hands-on session transforms broken ceramics into stunning, symbolic works of art—reminding participants that flaws can be a source of strength and beauty. Guided by trained facilitators, the workshop blends creativity with reflection, encouraging participants to explore themes of resilience, healing, and hope.
Hosted by LivArtFully.sg, this 2.5 to 3-hour workshop provides all materials and expert guidance in a warm, communal environment. Whether you’re an art lover, a seeker of mindfulness, or simply curious about Kintsugi, you’ll leave not just with a repaired ceramic piece, but also a renewed sense of appreciation for life’s imperfections. Each session is a journey of self-expression, transformation, and creative restoration.
Expressive Arts can be defined as: The purposeful integration of multiple creative forms—including movement, drawing, painting, sculpting, music, writing, sound, and improvisation—in a supportive setting to facilitate growth. Unlike traditional art, which may focus on technical skill or the final product, expressive arts focus on the process of creation to explore thoughts and feelings that are difficult to articulate verbally.
This workshop is not about producing a polished final piece, but about the discovery process—learning a new craft while exploring the philosophy of embracing brokenness, imperfection, and even failure. Completion of the entire artwork within the short session is not expected, as the focus rests on curiosity, openness, and play. The experience is best suited for those who welcome spontaneity and creative exploration, rather than those seeking precision, predictability, or perfection.
- Hands-On Art Experience: Learn a modern version of Kintsugi using safe, fast-drying materials like epoxy and metallic paint.
- Guided Reflection: Begin with a mindful exercise about imperfection before creating your own restored ceramic piece.
- All Materials Provided: Includes ceramic ware, adhesive, gold paint, brushes, and guidance from a trained facilitator.
- Personal Creation: Take home a meaningful artwork that reflects your unique story and resilience.
- Creative Environment: Hosted by LivArtFully.sg, a nurturing art space dedicated to healing through creativity.

What a lovely experience and also Audrey is such a talented artist. We enjoyed her visual art and also the stories behind some of her students’ pieces.
Instructor Audrey was very patient and clear in her introduction, explanation and instructions. However, the class size was too big (more than 30 pax) for such activity. It didn’t provide sufficient space & time for full appreciation of the art which was a great pity. Also, the piece provided wasn’t ceramic as mentioned in the advertisement, it was simply a normal porcelain bowl, a little disappointed.
