3 quotes from Wabi-Sabi

"Wabi-sabi is the most important aesthetic concept in Japanese culture, and it is a beauty that is imperfect, impermanent, and incomplete."
"To see Wabi-Sabi is to see the beauty in the flawed and the weathered, to appreciate the aging process as an integral part of beauty itself."
"Liminal spaces, both physical and spiritual, are where Wabi-Sabi happens; they invite us to embrace change, uncertainty, and the transitory nature of existence."
