About Missy Guisto's Art & Design Studio
Philosophy
At Missy Guisto's Art & Design Studio, she believes that art and design are not just about aesthetics, but also inspires emotions of the viewer. She has a strong interest in using a Wabi-Sabi philosophy when creating art from found and discarded objects and from nature. Wabi-Sabi is flea markets, aged wood, ricepaper. It celebrates cracks and crevices and all the other marks that time, weather and living leaves behind. Through Wabi-Sabi, we learn to embrace rust, and frayed edges, and the march of time they represent.
This runs through all of her work.
