The Design

About Kintsugi Ferrari Red Le Sujet De Conversation

« Kintsugi, Ferrari Red » est une pièce unique en son genre principalement inspirée par les coups de pinceau expressifs de l'expressionnisme abstrait et l'histoire de l'automobile. Après un accident, la pièce a mûri et a reçu une autre signification en étant entièrement restaurée selon l'ancienne technique japonaise « Kintsugi » où les pièces craquelées sont remontées et remplies d'or. Ce processus unique a donné à l’œuvre d’art une beauté et une simplicité fraîches. Il a acquis la maturité de quelque chose une fois brisé, mais à nouveau vivant.
