Wabi-Sabi is a Japanese aesthetic that i have found myself very connected to over the years... relating to it so much that i almost had it tattooed onto my knuckles until i decided on "tomatoes" instead... ( but that is another story. )
learning of wabi-sabi meant almost as much to me as "coming out" as queer, transgender, psychiatric survivor, etc. - it meant i finally had language to express the deep love i have always had for the beauty i see in imperfect, dirty, rotten, and rusty things - things that most people seem to see as falling apart, dying, and ugly... and what i have always felt is that it is at those moments of imperfection that we are truly alive and beautiful... and that is often where i find beauty and grace in my life and my work.
