Surely the people bitching about this lovely doc have not watched the whole thing- I think Theroux makes a great effort at finding out about japanese culture and delivers a very thoughtful account of his experience in Japan.
+balthiersgirl - He does say early-on that he'd researched it, however all his material was Western-based, hence the reason for his trip to get the information on *Wabi Sabi* from its source. People everywhere are poor at explaining, and this is a relatively difficult abstract concept.
I think the closest concept in English is "studied casualness". wabi comes from adjective wabishii (わびしい), which means humble, unimpressive, short of deserted. sabi comes from adjective sabishii (さびしい), which means lonely, or simple and undecorated in appearance.
It's also akin to the tradition of vanitas painting from the 1700s - the idea of impermanence, the inevitability of death and the inexorable passage of time.
Sabishii also means "sad" so I believe there is an element of soul ache to it all, appreciating the transience of everything with a sense that it is both beautiful and tragic. The more transient something is (child's innocence, falling sakura leaves, a sunset) the more beautiful it is, the more difficult to see if finish so quickly, and the more satisfying to have been there to witness it
Great documentary, I understand why someone could get annoyed by this guy but it's his own journey, and I respect his effort and hard work. How I wish to visit Japan one day and explore it's complexity on my own. 🙏
get a life , really , and an education, because if you think there is anything great about that excrement of a docu or this theroux guy then you need to reevaluate your entire vision of the world around you .
I do think that this document is quite shallow, but I found some things about it quite interesting. And its incredible how you can tell what kind of vision of the world I have, judging from a two sentence comment I made a year ago. Can you suggest me a better documentary or a good book to educate myself further? Thank you.
It just seems similar to the aesthetic we are after when we want handmade things even with their imperfections or when we purposely 'distress' things like furniture to give them more character. Too much decoration can seem gaudy or inappropriate/distracting. Maybe the tea people loved the simple bowls because they wanted the focus on the ceremony and the intamacy of it. There is nothing personal or intimate about a mass produced store bought item. There's no story behind a shiny new thing, but if you have an heriloom, or antique, even if it's not perfect, we love it and there is a story behind it.

superduper inspiring, thank you very much Gablesha, Marcel Theroux and crew/documentary staff , also to all interviewees resource. I have been very indebted to all of you. Peace!
Wabi Sabi can be explained as the story held in the face of the aging. Westerners seek plastic surgery to make the old face young. Wabi Sabi celebrates the old face as a testament to having lived the life that was lived. Old, or imperfect things is beautiful, not something to discard or renew. An old, shovel documents the service that served its user over time. Modern day pop or rock music is manufactured into a final cut after one take through electronic editing and simulated sounds. A traditional studio created song is done over and over front the top until it is intuitively just right. When you examine that song, you will discover the metre, drumming, and timing is off or imperfect but this is the beauty. Life is not perfect. Wabi Sabi is admission to that.
I think wabi sabi is not just the imperfection. but it's about how you appreciate the things that simple and imperfect. you learn and understand about all things are not stable of your life. sometime, you just have to be quite and feel the things that just happened
So you read In Praise of Shadows? It's marvelous! It really makes me travel, imagine, and see beauty. It's an ode to aesthetics. I was deeply excited when I read it for the first time.
Wow, thank you for sharing. Without realizing, by end of it, tears were just rolling down uncomfortably, this is very deep n eye opening for people like us from west. Thank you again.
5:00 "If wabi sabi is part of their culture, they surely should know what it means." Do fish know what "water" means? Or can westerners explain Plato and Aristotle?
And if he go to Japan he should study japanese just enough to comunicad and learn a little of the culture... it's not that the japanese people doesn't know a out wabi sabi, but is a very complex concept of art and phylosophy... and most of people can't explain even in japanese much worse in other language and more to another person who have no idea what is the profound conscious japanese people are...
So nice that some one tries to make out what it is Wabi Sabi Well W S is simply that life and the total ecosystem in which you live anywhere on planet earth is " always a work in Progress" i.e., Wabi Sabi as i understand it. Thanks Good luck Kasturi G
This helps me with my OCD. I have a big issue with imperfections. I see the beauty in distessed jeans, worn vintage leather. that worn in loved look but doing the damage myself is what I can't overcome if the item was perfect to begin with. it's strange. maybe someone can explain why this is
It isn't imperfection you desire it's the process ,the passage of time ,the part inbetween the beginning and the end.Why did I reply today? Why not 1 year ago? Would my reply have been the same? Will you even read this? You see,the in between.
Can't we all agree that each term, "Wabi' or "sabi" is a complex philosophical term. Each concept has taken hundreds of years to capture in words or images. Just imagine the immense amount of work just to take care of the temple. Now span that across decades of changing history and impermanent permanence that followed as result. We won't understand because the beauty can, in a rude translation, cause us pleasure while blissfully suffering in the meanwhile. Us westerners need to let go of trying to package "zen" or any other view point from the East and focus on our own enigmas at bay. My two cents.
Touching, and a little tragic too. At the start, Marcel seems quite sensitive to the wabi sabi aesthetic and honestly moved by it, but has terrible difficulty putting it in its proper context regarding Japanese culture overall. An analogy might be if a Japanese aesthete came to the West seeking the meaning of Romanticism (or Classicism, or any other movement in art). The Westerner in the street would probably recognize the term but not be able to define it adequately, and though our culture is shot through with Romantic ideals and values, it might be difficult to find living examples in everyday Western life.
Wabi-sabi is the capacity to be free of desire. The more you desire, more you live in function of it, so, if you are able to feel satisfied without the necessity of have things, so you are able to contemplate the world by the Wabi-sabi perspective, that means, again, pure satisfaction. Thats my opinion xD
2021: I Remarried after giving birth to a child from a different but first husband. The second, had married four times prior, but now deceased.This husband, was not a consciously-conscious human-being although an engineer in scientific human engineering. Unknowingly, he did suffer culture shock on our honeymoon. As Time passed, he continued oblivious to our family aesthetic surroundings and stayed in his own subliminal private world. His complex job 24/7 at the same time, was all consuming. He thought it protected secretively to insulate him by his work on Lockheeds’ Mars Project. Our partial life together could not be shared. The lack in his highly trained senses, did not allow the simplicity of the WABI--SABI motif. This was in spite of his child like-innocence and naïveté! For me, It was a tragic contradiction that had no solution.
Thank you so much, I need to revisited again this wonderful journey to find Wabi Sabi I may learn something, but I'm not sure if I can find Wabi Sabi, but perhaps it's inside my heart.
We have wabi sabi in Norway. There is the idea of the simplistic, the rustic. We have a word "koselig", that explains the feeling of being at home in a place, of feeling welcomed, warm, intimate. It is also related to this wabi sabiness.
Thank you for you journey! And for sharing here. I believe i was able to find some true wabi-sabi in the Europe. I believe humans share this deep understanding. It is the ability of perception, of being able to give a second sight to all your surroundings, to feel and live the poetry of everyday, I feel the connection to everyday aesthetics, to sweet-bitter melancholy in the life, it means to accommodate the natural cycles and to free our creative potential too. And more. I talk about ws like about the aesthetics of the second sight, the aesthetics of shades, feeling ws is a bit like feeling the autumn. And it is very sensual! Can't understand ws without being able to use well our senses.
This is great. I love it. It's like watching Louis on a school trip when he was 16 and just dabbling in making documentaries. No offence Marcel, you're great. It must be hard to live in your brothers shadow.
Wabi or Sabi is a kind of anti-gorgeous style or tradition where many people warship and pay high attention to the goods whose price are expensive. But a few people finds the beauty in the goods manners, whose outlook is not luxury. The sprite the minor people have is so called Wabi or Sabi.
I think "wabi Sabi" is a variant or another expression of a certain morality and attitude which is more or less shared throughout the Eastern World. The closest thing in the Western World to that plane of cognition might be what is cherished in the Romantic period of the Western Literature.
I would be grateful to see a documentary that investigates the relationship (or lack thereof) of BBC, quirky documentarian Louis Theroux and the documentarian featured here whose name sort of suggests a familial relationship and other striking similarities. In tribute of the excellence and perfection of wabi sabi, allow me to publicly register my general, imprecise and imperfect critique of the movement. I would be proud if any typos or other mistakes contained in this paragraph (it is becoming very long, I hope) could be immediately brought to my attention, well, most of the mistakes in almost but not quite all instances. I Luve wabi sabi!
to me Wabi Sabi is nothing but the buddhistic "it is" ... :D (to value what is (not even what you get just what is) not beeing attached to anything - at all)
What I understand and know now is!! Wabi: To be as smple as it can be. (ex,. When you want do an assignment do ot without any additional painting, coloring, and decoration. You just do what is required from you). Sabi: It all about that things don’t change, and their beauty is always there. (ex,. You are always you, your weight, height, and age change does not chabge you. You are always you!)
just me but before going to another country and asking about a concept, I would first learn how to pronounce it correctly!! Had to stop after I heard the intro..
When I visited The Great Japan Exhibition in London many years ago and wondered aloud about the childlike ceramics, I was told the Japanese hadn't been able to master ceramics and outsourced to Taiwan. Don't know if this is true. Their Raku process produces beautiful results though. After that, can't listen to him saying wabi sabi over and over. Much alike that Luton girl and her 'yabba' in Thailand (it's yah bah). Is he pronouncing it correctly?

Fun fact is that all the people here are judging a video about wabi sabi for not being perfect. Applause
you see the contradition here
He will never understand wabi sabi because he's unaware of what he's even askin, he should just give up and wabi sabi will find him? DUH !!!
kam lam the funniest thing is he probably already new exactly what it was it's more the point no one could fucking actually explain it

I enjoyed his haiku about the maple leaves like hands, catching waning sunlight. Beautiful.
I think the closest concept in English is "studied casualness". wabi comes from adjective wabishii (わびしい), which means humble, unimpressive, short of deserted. sabi comes from adjective sabishii (さびしい), which means lonely, or simple and undecorated in appearance.
It's also akin to the tradition of vanitas painting from the 1700s - the idea of impermanence, the inevitability of death and the inexorable passage of time.
Sabishii also means "sad" so I believe there is an element of soul ache to it all, appreciating the transience of everything with a sense that it is both beautiful and tragic. The more transient something is (child's innocence, falling sakura leaves, a sunset) the more beautiful it is, the more difficult to see if finish so quickly, and the more satisfying to have been there to witness it

I going to Europe to ask random people to explain Stoicism to me.
that's actually a good way to feel out the people's awareness of the concept
I think Marcel would have had better luck if he went to Japan and asked them to explain stoicism to him.
What about going to China and asking people to explain the Tao? 😁
First up embarrass a person in front of camera for failing to explain the concept. ‘Never visited before but I feel I know…’. Arrogance that then to proceeds to undo him.

The last part had that theroux charm of making things awkward.
Wabi Sabi is the humble journey of Marcel Theroux to try to define it. Imperfect, impermanent, incomplete.
I think the most accurate idea of wabisabi is the one by the polish monk: "you missing here"
Exactly !! If he's missing here (out of the picture), then wabi sabi is at peace !
I think the monk just wants him to go to bed and stop asking "nonsense" questions about wabi sabi, haha
Touching, and a little tragic too. At the start, Marcel seems quite sensitive to the wabi sabi aesthetic and honestly moved by it, but has terrible difficulty putting it in its proper context regarding Japanese culture overall.

Lol
Maybe it is if you brings one to full presence.
wabi sabi means different things to different people: beauty in inperfection, impermanence; an esthetic.

We have wabi sabi in Norway. There is the idea of the simplistic, the rustic. We have a word "koselig", that explains the feeling of being at home in a place, of feeling welcomed, warm, intimate. It is also related to this wabi sabiness.

To be as smple as it can be. (ex,. When you want do an assignment do ot without any additional painting, coloring, and decoration. You just do what is required from you).
Sabi:
It all about that things don’t change, and their beauty is always there. (ex,. You are always you, your weight, height, and age change does not chabge you. You are always you!)
