Please join us for a wabi-sabi mending workshop led by dosa’s Christina Kim. The practice of mending, and “consuming less, cherishing more”, were passed down to Christina from her grandmother, and are at the heart of dosa’s design ethos. This mending workshop will explore this intersection of handwork and reuse through the East Asian philosophy of wabi-sabi, which celebrates the imperfections resulting from time, wear, and use. Christina will be sharing visible mending techniques that repair textiles while also calling attention to signs of wear.
Recommended for ages 14 and above.
