Frail vessel


Frail vessel, originally uploaded by moonwild.

Here is a another of my wabi-sabi raft bundles. Red willow, mullen leaf, handmade papers, button and recycled sari yarn.I use text from an salvaged book I found on the street.
Wabi is rustic simplicity, freshness or quietness,understated elegance.
Sabi is beauty or serenity that comes with age, when the life of the object and its impermanence are evidenced in its patina and wear.
a fragmentary glimpse: the branch representing the entire tree.
