A broken heart repaired through Kintsugi technique.
When our hearts are broken, it is really difficult to open it again. The ones who make it, are the brave ones, and those hearts are more beautiful because they choose to keep going and transform even knowing there could be consequences.

Kintsugi is the Japanese art of repairing broken pottery by mending the areas of breakage with lacquer dusted or mixed with powdered gold, silver, or platinum.
It is part of a philosophy that states that breakages and repairs are part of the history of an object, and that they should be shown rather than hidden, incorporated, and also done to embellish the object, highlighting its transformation and history.
