"Kintsugi" by Lana Del Rey takes its name from the Japanese art of repairing broken pottery with gold, silver or platinum, creating a new and unique piece of art. The idea is that the repair isn't something to hide, but rather it is part of the story of the object. You could say that it actually makes the original piece more beautiful and interesting. Through brokenness comes new life. Below is a photo of kintsugi from the 16th century.
