Wabi-Sabi – a way of seeing : a way of being

In its purest form, the philosophy of wabi-sabi is all about the fragile, sometimes exquisite, fleeting time when something is in its “twilight zone” between being and not being … at the very edge of its existence.

In this book, photographer and tutor Sally Mason encourages us to slow down and look more deeply at the natural world around us. Giving ourselves a time of quietness allows us to enter a personal space, removed from the visually demanding world in which we live. Such a time lets us see the often-overlooked beauty that waits patiently to be appreciated. It allows us to enter into a one-to-one communication with nature, and with ourselves.
