About the Event

REFINED

The aesthetic value of simplicity, grace over time, the awareness we need to attain, purity, acceptance and quiet satisfaction. A peaceful mood, rustic structure, rhythm of nature, natural transformation, tide and tide… If everything is constantly changing, nothing is absolutely complete, they are all “a perfect treasure with imperfections.”

Everything gets old, takes its time. Nothing stays as it is. Change is evident and rapid, sometimes uncertain and slow, as in nature. The idea of being stable makes us feel safe, but there are situations where we have to keep up even if we don't have a choice. When evaluated correctly, these situations are; It creates a more beautiful, valuable life. In this process, the best thing is to find the meaning of the journey and not miss the adventures.

WABI-SABI is a sincere reaction to beauty. It destroys the distance between man and nature, and makes you experience both unity and individuality. It accepts and appreciates the temporary imperfections and deficiencies inherent in everything. It is a philosophy that allows us to see that it is possible to come up with more beautiful situations and moments than to hide the fractures, and the awareness of repair and therapy. It is a unique way of life. Do you think it is incomplete or is it our perspective that is flawed in this life path?
