SUMMARY:“Wabi-Sabi” presented by Lisa & Tom Cuchara
DESCRIPTION:On November 16 at 7:30 PM\, Lisa & Tom Cuchara will present their new program “Wabi-Sabi” via Zoom. This program will explore the beauty of imperfect and/or unconventional subjects. This program highlights subjects that are not perfect\, such as flowers that have character\, double headed flowers\, decaying fall leaves\, the deformed coneflower that stands out as flawed and hence different and beautiful\, rust as it creates abstract patterns amidst the decay\, etc. We will also explore the concept of slowing down and appreciating the beauty of everyday life\, things that might be overlooked. Wabi-Sabi teaches one to find beauty in everyday life. It is a kind of anti-aesthetic\, an alternative to the dominating discriminatory ideas we hold about beauty.\n“Wabi” means a beauty of elegant imperfection. “Sabi” means aloneness. Together\, they suggest the beauty of ‘the withered\, weathered\, tarnished\, scarred\, intimate\, coarse\, earthly\, evanescent\, tentative\, ephemeral’ ~ Crispin Sartwell\, Six Names of Beauty. It is used to describe a particular philosophy that beauty can be found in the old\, the everyday\, the imperfect. \nLisa Cuchara\, PhD\, Master Craftsman (PPA)\, Master of Photography (M. Photog.) HonNEC is very passionate about photography and enjoys both being behind the lens and in the digital darkroom. She loves to photograph nature but finds many subjects equally intriguing. Lisa and her husband Tom are known for their expertise in Photography and in Photoshop\, and for their inspirational and informative photography workshops. Lisa has created numerous award-winning photographic images and enjoys sharing her vision\, passion and her knowledge! Her photographs have appeared in Adirondack Life\, Wild Bird\, Birder’s World\, in calendars\, on the cover of a fictional paperback novel\, in galleries and exhibitions\, and been accepted into the PPA loan collection. Lisa & Tom have published two books with Amherst Media “Create Fine Art Photographs from Historic Places and Rusty Things” and “The Frog Whisperer”. Check out Lisa and Tom and their photography classes\, photo tours and workshops at www.photographybylisaandtom.com. \nThis free meeting will be held via Zoom.
