  • Beauty can be coaxed out of ugliness. Wabi-sabi is ambivalent about separating beauty from non-beauty or ugliness. The condition of coming to terms with what you consider ugly. Wabi-sabi suggests that beauty is a dynamic event between you and something else. Beauty can spontaneously occur at any moment given the proper circumstances, context, or point of view. Beauty is thus an altered state of consciousness, an extraordinary moment of poetry and grace.

There are some legal and privacy information —written in german and not laid out very thoughtfully, though. It’s nothing fancy really, just good ol’ common sense. Frank Chimero said it best: Be nice. Give credit. Share, don’t steal. If there's something you don't want to be featured here, just let me know via email.

That's all folks.

ps.: You look good today. ✨
