New Sculpture 43: "Kintsugi" by Teal Freenote.
Kintsugi (Japanese for golden joinery) is the Japanese art of fixing broken pottery with a lacquer resin sprinkled with powdered gold.
"When the Japanese mend broken objects, they aggrandize the damage by filling the cracks with gold. They believe that when something's suffered damage and has a history, it becomes more beautiful."
~Barbara Bloom

Le Kintsugi, c’est d’abord un art japonais qui vise à sublimer, au moyen d’une laque saupoudrée d’or, la réparation d’un objet brisé. Les traces de cette réparation deviennent alors d’harmonieux témoins d’un passé, marquant sa renaissance au monde. Kintsugi, c’est aussi une rencontre
enchantée entre la France et le Japon avec un trio de musiciens
d’exception aux horizons singuliers. Le guitariste tout-terrain Serge Teyssot-Gay, cofondateur du groupe rock Noir Désir, le violoncelliste Gaspar Claus, entretenant des rapports fusionnels avec son instrument, qui, la saison dernière nous a offert avec son père Pedro Soler, grand guitariste flamenco, un concert unique, et la surprenante chanteuse et joueuse de biwa japonaise Kakushin Nishihara, tokyoïte, maîtresse punk d’un héritage archaïque. Cette dernière va puiser dans le mouvement fou des mégapoles et des grandes catastrophes universelles, l’essence même d’une tradition aussi maîtrisée que sauvage. Sa voix et les cinq cordes de son biwa fascinent et ressuscitent les Yokais (fantômes japonnais) et les samouraïs d’une époque qui disparaîtra le jour où elle ne sera plus chantée ! Unis par les cordes de leurs instruments, ils nous invitent, par cette musique, à nous rapprocher tels les liens dorés du kintsugi…

Kintsugi: The Art of Embracing Imperfection
Kintsugi is a traditional Japanese art form that highlights the aesthetic and philosophical significance of embracing imperfections. When an object breaks, its repair through Kintsugi can make it even more beautiful and personal. By using lacquer mixed with powdered gold, silver, or platinum, the cracks and flaws are transformed into unique features, telling a story of resilience and renewal. This practice teaches us to appreciate the history and beauty in the repaired, celebrating the journey of transformation.
Poem:
In broken pieces lay the story,
Of shattered dreams and fading glory.
With golden seams, we mend the past,
Creating beauty meant to last.
From fractures bloom a brighter hue,
Imperfections cast anew.
Each line a testament, strong and true,
To life's embrace of old and new.
Haikus:
Cracks filled with gold shine,
Mended hearts and souls align,
Beauty in decline.
Broken pieces glow,
Golden veins in art bestow,
Healing we bestow.

Today I have something very exciting to share with you all. I recently applied for and received a blogging gig for BeSpoke. Before I get to talking about the wonderful mesh head I’m showcasing today, I wanted to share a little backstory.
When I came back into SL after so long away, I was floored by all the advancements I found for all aspects of the game. The mesh heads and bodies blew my mind in particular. As I teleported around seeing all of the options I came across BeSpoke and I must have spent hours looking at all the wonderful items. The coolest part about SL to me is the creator driven economy. By producing these imaginative heads, BeSpoke makes it possible for residents like me to express my creativity and now (more than ever before) it is truly possible to be anything in SL.
So onto the head I’ve got today.
The Android Raven mesh fantasy head is a style that I’ve always found really cool going as far back as Ghost in the Shell to modern sci fi today with films like The Creator. I’m kind of obsessed with anything cyberpunk/sci fi so this head was a no brainer for me. They also have a cool BoM in four metal finishes tattoo that adds to the overall look. I tested the head with several of the skins I owned and they looked great, but in the end opted to stick with a BeSpoke skin in the porcelain tone. The head hud has many of the features most people would expect of a mesh head and allows for a lot of customization. I really liked the ability to change the color of the metal parts on the head. I wanted a much more subdued look to my android so I opted to keep many parts as their usual color but I did color the piping to be purple as that’s my favorite color.
The rest of the outfit were items that I already had either from event gifts, freebies, or some store bought and I’ll list them below (note: some of the items were given away during events or bought at events, so they might not still be available)
As for the edit itself, I wanted a background that fit the aesthetics of the character I had put together but I also didn’t want it to overshadow the character. I opted to isolate my android using overlays on the background to give the image a more graphic design feel. The rest of the edit was my usual cocktail of softening the blacks, and enhancing shadows and highlights with a dash of some painting on the face to even out the lighting.
I want to thank the BeSpoke team for giving this untested blogger a chance to share his perspective and I look forward to doing many more characters to share with you all.

Bluebirds Log:
Hello, it is me B.B. bluer than usual in all ways, sad and bashed up, I am in sickbay after what started as a clean-up of a smaller nuclear waste leak of some cargo boxes in storage-bay at the Kb1122-11223 zed...
so anyhow, Me, Pinkeydot, Marioanella, redhead and Miss got commando of some rad-bots to clean up the mess...
So armed with bots equipment and some outdated rad counters we started to clean the mess, well actually the bots did and we commanded them around...
then all the sudden a grid in the ceiling broke loose and the strangest spaceship that I have even seen broke through the falling grid of the exterior ventilation shaft...
...it was a mix of glued together pieces of wreckage of outdated machinery adorned with feathers and wooden barrels attached to it... like a troglodyte spacecraft if there was such a thing and it was such a thing, hanging on the outside where cavemen almost nude with small hides covering their private parts, on their head where ancient space-helmets from the 21st century half-cracked and mended by veggie-glue and thread stitches... like some form of primitive kintsugi!
Two primitives jumped down and knocked out Irena then tied her up, while two others armed with ancient club-like weapons started bashing away at us who tried to defend her and bring her back...
Readhead was the first who got knocked to the floor poor thing, then I Marioanella and I started to confront the raging primal warriors, I was knocked by several blows to my head and here I am with bumps all over my head and a minor skull fracture and headaches like I have been to the party planet for a week...
...Maurioanella who was armed whit her pluming tool, yeah I don´t know what they call those things, could it be a monkey-wrench, a polygrip, a plunger or Usb-stick? I don´t think she knows it her self, she just call it the-tool-I-knock-turtles-in-the-head-with-while-I-Do-Plumming!
...anyhow, she kept on fencing with the troglodytes for some minutes and then even she was overpowered an knocked out...
...or so the rad-bot told me, it was here with flowers and candy to me an Marioanella, it was crying since it was in love with Irena!!! he was sad because he just froze during the combat out of fear of these feral creatures!!!
My God I just got it, Irena is kidnapped again... gotta get out of bed, gotta save her... over and out!
