Annabelle Mueller - Broken Beauty

Artist Statement

Sometimes we feel like we have to be perfect and look perfect to fit in. We don't need to. But when we judge ourselves or think badly about ourselves, we crack our sense of self-worth. With the Japanese art of Kintsugi, a pot is broken and then lovingly and painstakingly repaired with gold glue. For our sense of self-worth, it can be slowly repaired as well, making something even more beautiful as we learn and grow in confidence.
