Makomako is a New York based Kintsugi artist and Chanoyu practitioner. The breaking of a tea bowl led her to the study of Kintsugi – the Japanese art of ceramic restoration using urushi lacquer and gold. She greatly enjoys working with her hands and has restored earthenware, stoneware, porcelain, Yixing ware, as well as other objects made from agate, jade, glass, and resin.
