There's an ancient Japanese form of art called Kintsugi. That is to mend cracks of a dish, a cup a mug, or something like that, with gold.
That's my interpretation of kintsugi on the human skin.

This article is about the Japanese art form. For the Death Cab for Cutie album, see Kintsugi (album).

Kintsugi (金継ぎ, "golden joinery"), also known as Kintsukuroi (金繕い, "golden repair"),[1] is the Japanese art of repairing broken pottery with lacquer dusted or mixed with powdered gold, silver, or platinum, a method similar to the maki-etechnique.[2][3][4] As a philosophy, it treats breakage and repair as part of the history of an object, rather than something to disguise.[5]
