Egosumaii Kintsukuroi Masks @ NEO Japan

EgosumAii brings some lovely Kintsukuroi* masks to NEO Japan March 31 ~ April 22. You'll find the EgosumAii space close to the landing point in the center ring of shops.
As you move out from the center, you will find many skins, tattoos, clothing and specialty items in a build that will remind you of modern Tokyo. 

These beautiful masks come in Onyx, Silver or Gold with or without colored third eye and with and without tongues.
I am wearing the masks with the Armored Liless Suits from +Aii. The suit comes in gold, silver, gunmetal or onyx and is available @ the +Aii main store in the new items area.

*About Kintsukuroi: The story is told of a bowl that was much loved by a military ruler. One day a servant accidentally dropped the bowl, which broke into five pieces.  Everyone paused, fearing for the young man as the military leader was known to possess a quick,  harsh temper.  Then one of the guests improvised a comic poem about the incident, provoking laughter all around and restoring the leader to good spirits. 

The story goes on to say that instead of the break "…diminishing [the bowl's] appeal, a new sense of its vitality and resilience raised appreciation to even greater heights."  The bowl had become more beautiful for having been broken.  The true life of the bowl "…began the moment it was dropped…"



From that day onward, mended bowls have been used and cherished for generations.  In Japan, cracks in precious bowls are often filled with gold.  The Japanese believe that when something has suffered damage and has a history, it becomes more beautiful.
