Tiffani Gyatso "Mystic Nostalgia"
Tibet House
This event has ended.
This exhibition features a series of colorful, emotive and imaginative paintings from artist Tiffani Gyatso’s vision, her spiritual journey, and search for the inner voice.
“These paintings took birth from an inner process of trying to find answers for those things with no name,” says Tiffani Gyatso, a Brazilian artist who was accepted as the first foreigner to study tangka painting at the Norbulingka Institute. Though her work is rooted in sacred iconography from Tibet, Gyatso also paints images that are contemporary. Gyatso suggests that most of her paintings “come from a broken heart trying to deal with illusions and passions, basing thought on the Buddhist dharma teachings, adopting a vision of spiritual practice through all that happens in the deep turmoil of samsara - the continuous cycle of birth, life, death and rebirth.”
