Wabi-sabi is ambivalent about separating beauty from non-beauty or ugliness. The beauty of wabi-sabi is, in one respect, the condition of coming to terms with what you consider ugly. Wabi-sabi suggests that beauty is a dynamic event that occurs 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.
-- Leonard Koren Wabi-Sabi for Artists, Designers, Poets & Philosophers
Wabi Sabi is a journey of discovery. When you comb the beach and pick up a broken shell
smoothed by time or hike a mountain trail and come upon a colorful stone
or weathered barn, you have found the essence of Wabi Sabi.
