Is there a word for finding beauty in ugly things?
It s like Asian in origin, and I JUST CAN T REMEMBER.
No, I'm talking about listening to your favorite song and learning to love that sour note in the middle of a chorus. I'm talking about looking at your lover's face and finding that gross mole to be something beautiful. I'm talking about defining something by how much you love it, rather than how an outsider would define it as "ugly". It's not art, it's not just asymmetry, it's purposefully ugly and someone finds the beauty in it, and I'm looking for that word.

It's not exactly "ugly" things, but "simple and imperfect" things.
