Wabi Sabi Wanderings


Sutradhar is organizing a 2-day workshop on ‘Wabi Sabi’ on August 3rd and 4th (Fri-Sat), 2012.


This workshop is interdisciplinary, participative and experiential. ‘Wabi Sabi’ will be portrayed through story, poetry and art forms with quiet playfulness.

The workshop will be led by Vishakha Chanchani, who trained in Baroda and has been an art teacher at several schools in Bangalore. Her workshops are inherently interdisciplinary, and break the conventional silos of learning through subjects.

The workshop is open to all primary school teachers, art teachers and educators interested in creative explorations with children.


Venue: Ashirwad, lane opposite State Bank of India, St. Marks Road, Bangalore

Contact: Mr. Mandira Kumar Ph: 25288545, 25215191(Tue-Sat) Email Id: sutradhar2007@gmail.com




What is Wabi Sabi?

Wabi Sabi is a Japanese idea, a way of seeing. Wabi Sabi eyes see beauty in the fine crack of a pot, or the muted colors of change. They feel the beauty of fading blossoms, the wrinkles of skin, of creased paper and worn out cloth. They rejoice in the simple, the ordinary, the imperfect.
