It is Written
Art Description
To seek the path, to seek the clarity, it is written.
In the books that we read, in the stories that have been told, and in the prayers that have been spread for goodness and for all.
To each their own faith, one who we seek, one who will guide us, it is written.

As a young boy I would try to copy the artwork in monasteries and temples. This led me to study at the National Institute of Zorig Chusum. My teacher would always say, “Anyone who gives you work, do it with perfection. Their happiness in seeing your work will bless your path too.”
Assisting my teacher in painting statues led to many prestigious projects and exhibitions outside Bhutan. One of my Thangka scroll paintings is still exhibited in the Bhutan Museum in Japan. Some of my artworks are part of the inner sacred sanctum of Tashichoe Dzong which is open only for the Je Khenpo and our Kings.
My creations make me grow and solidify my identity, and overcome the aggressions I had as a young boy.
