"Finding perfection in imperfection, beauty in the passage of time."

Sebastian James is a contemplative artist deeply inspired by the Japanese philosophy of Wabi-sabi, which embraces imperfection, impermanence, and the inherent beauty found in simplicity and age.

His work is a quiet meditation on the poetry of decay, the elegance of austerity, and the stories etched by time.

He utilizes a muted, earthy palette derived from natural pigments and often incorporates mixed media such as raw linen, tea stains, and gesso to create textured, tactile surfaces that feel both ancient and intimately personal.

His compositions are minimal yet profound, celebrating cracks, patinas, and asymmetrical forms.
