Title: Kintsugi Art, Philosophy, and Cross-cultural Links through the Perspective of 3D Computer Modeling, Digital Fabrication, and Virtualization
Abstract – The talk introduces the Japanese traditional art of Kintsugi known since around the 15th century through the perspective of applying present-day 3D modeling, virtualization, and digital fabrication technology for recreating the precious but damaged pottery objects and for studying the possibilities and implications of Kintsugi simulation in virtual environments. We demonstrate the approach using the story of the restoration of a vintage porcelain figurine from the collections of Royal Doulton, the notable English producer of decorative ceramics, thus, discussing both technological, trans-disciplinary, and cross-cultural aspects of the interplay of past, present, and future through melding the technology-focused paradigms with time-honored techniques. The project not only contributes to technological innovation, but helps strengthen the story of the long-lasting dialogue between Western and Japanese pottery makers and artists, and, in a broader sense, the inter-influence of their cultural and technological traditions.
