I will share more information as I receive more.
The truth is, it’s not meant to be clear whether the inhabitants are human, artificial, or something in between—a future form that emerged after singularity, or simply humans on a distant mission, sometime ahead. Their world isn’t necessarily futuristic in the usual sense; rather, it reframes familiar, contemporary conditions through a future lens.

P.S. Because the silence world is just best in the only place I can think of where silence is comfortable. A peaceful wave of silence not just physically, but mentally and spiritually. The Wise garden just allows us that much in this life full of noises.
Sometimes silence is the best answer to everything... :) It speaks louder than words.
Happy Anti-Valentine's, from Rhyme nor Reason.
Out just in time to greet the hunters of the Anti-Valentine's hunt while they're picking up their free Kintsugi Vase, The [RnR] Heartbreak Fixer is customisable - add your own picture (onto the photo face) of your crush, your lost love, your dirty cheating hobag, your nemesis.. whatever. (And yes, I've included the punching bag's texture in the package, too.. coz you just know some of you are going to drop it on the wrong spot - got you covered.)
Also included is some wearable gloves and hanging gloves decor.

Kintsugi is the traditional Japanese art where broken pottery is repaired with gold lacquer. The artwork transforms broken objects into beautiful masterpieces. Kintsugi symbolizes embracing beauty in imperfections and highlights the power of resilience.
“Omnia Mutantur, Nihil Interit. 'Everything changes, but nothing is truly lost.”
― Neil Gaiman, The Wake

P.S. I knew where I wanted the Wellspring little world globe but to get the right angle was a challenge. To allow one of the deers to peek through and join the duck and chicken around the well. The source of water for us humans to help sustain us and the environment around us. In the middle of Kintsugi's city just fits so well.
Isn't it everlasting? It will always take over in the end in some way or the other. There will always be a wellspring of nature, or at least, we can only help make it that way. Save animals, plant more trees or tiny plants and take care of your surroundings. If we make it a lifestyle, we can help make the world a better place by loving the very existence it came with. When you love, you automatically learn to care. I dream of a day when all the tall skyscrapers will be slowly overrun by crawling ivy, beautiful flowers and birds just making nests in every nook. I dream of a wellspring of hope and love, always.
first off - this was taken at Kintsugi; Spirited Beyond "Made with Care"
The whole thing started with making a tattoo that was personal to me, kanji for my birth year with hanging paper cranes. Legend has it if you fold 1000 paper cranes you get your wish. My wish is my own.
I told this story to my lovely friend Dalia who said "this dress was made for you" and sent it to me.
* Paloma * dress from Les Sucreries des Fairy - shoes are Dalia's Kyoto Okobo - cage is [since1975]'s Let Origamies Fly & Cage - skin is [ session ] Niko - head is LeLutka Piper - hair is Sintiklia Titania with additions - tattoos are Letis, Juna, and mine - makeup is alaskametro<3, [mudskin], Izzie's, [theSkinnery] - shape is mine.

Nothing is ever truly broken. That's the philosophy behind the ancient Japanese art of Kintsugi which repairs smashed pottery by using beautiful seams of gold....the proof of it's fragility and its resilience is what makes it beautiful.
This fragment of a falls brings both fragility and resilience in the grace and beauty of a fragile branch before a powerful yet caressing fall of water.
Devil's Punchbowl Falls, New Zealand
f/5.6, 1/80s, ISO 125
three images blended for depth of field and water motion.
Kintsugi is a series of interconnected mixed media photo books/zines meant to be read together, though in no particular order. The title refers to the Japanese art of repairing broken pottery, where fractures are not concealed but transformed into part of the whole. Similarly, the narrative unfolds in fragments—entries, logs, memos, and notes that, assembled, reveal a larger structure.
The texts document the Habitat and its inhabitants, who, under the supervision of The Vault, tend to the surrounding terrain and to the Shells—enigmatic local forms whose nature remains uncertain. What emerges is a record of observation, repair, and transformation—an act of narrative kintsugi.
These beauties will be available on the 20th @ Harajuku!
I had a lot of fun making these because not only is it anime related, but I also was able to add a little flare to it by naming the different colors to different stones that I find quite beautiful.
Highly inspired by the anime/manga series called Dr. Stone!
Each of the pack contains 4 different stone cracks, the FATPACK has a bonus which is a gold-tone which is based on the "Kintsugi" tradition, if you guys don't know what that is, definitely check it out!
Product Includes:
+ 4 different colors - stones
+ BoM (Specifically made for LeLUTKA EVO)
+ Omega Applier
+ FATPACK includes extra gold tone
One of my favorite spots because its such a lovely peaceful place to be! maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Runaway/50/106/23
Spreads from Kintsugi, a series of interconnected zines I’m working on. It is meant to be read in any order. Like the art of mending pottery, its fractured narrative forms a whole through fragments—logs, memos, and entries from the Habitat and its inhabitants. Overseen by The Vault, the inhabitants tend to the terrain and the Shells, blurring the line between human and machine, present and future, memory and repair.
I’m diving deeper and deeper into the surreal, sci fi world. Some of the images and text is done a long time ago. I’m now editing and putting it all together. It is all finally coming together!

I was doing my kintsugi piece at home , never checked the forecast ,was raining all day!!! i received a message from a good friend that is an opening sudden in the west. after 20 min parked stoped set shoot anf this happened. fast pano cropped and shooted fast .
It is unclear whether this is a recovered archive from a lost mission, a distant planet, or an unknown civilization—whether it belongs to the future or the present, whether the events occurred near or far. Observations are catalogued, yet each entry drifts into the surreal, eroding any sense of objectivity. These records come from anonymous voice(s) attempting to describe encounters with phenomena that resist explanation.
Kintsugi vase (home made) with flowers from the garden. This small vase had a crack, I finished its destruction with a hammer, and spent 2 hours mending it in the kintsugi style (here with glue and golden glitter)
The truth is, it’s not meant to be clear whether the inhabitants are human, artificial, or something in between—a future form that emerged after singularity, or simply humans on a distant mission, sometime ahead. Their world isn’t necessarily futuristic in the usual sense; rather, it reframes familiar, contemporary conditions through a future lens.
