This week’s session will be about:
WABI SABI
The theme of "Wabi Sabi" embraces the beauty of imperfection, transience, and the natural cycle of growth and decay.
Rooted in Japanese aesthetics, Wabi Sabi finds elegance not only in the weathered, worn, and overlooked—capturing subjects like peeling paint, or rusted metal. But, Wabi Sabi also sees beauty in natural imperfections, a scar on beautiful young skin or a blemish on a ripe apple. This theme defines the line in the song, “I love all your perfect imperfections”.
Photographers working with this theme focus on textures, muted tones, and subtle compositions that highlight the quiet grace of things as they are, flaws and all. Through this lens, Wabi Sabi photography encourages a sense of mindfulness, inviting viewers to appreciate the fleeting beauty in life’s imperfect moments.
