About

Wabi-Sabi Zen is the place where objects tell their stories. Wabi refers to the inner life, a spiritual path or narrative, in other words, the story. Sabi refers to material things, the objects.  Zen refers to the practice of attention — to the mind that notices.

Wabi-Sabi Zen refers to storied objects and the mind that notices.

Wabi-sabi  is a Japanese aesthetics that is associated with the earthen & elemental materials, whose form has grown organically, and whose shape, textures, shades and hues are a result of being weathered by natural processes over time. Wabi-sabi explores impermanence, the ability to cherish an object in its passage through time.  In this sense, wabi-sabi is not separable from its story and its environs.
