Lobzang Palden, Tibetan Buddhist monk artist, well known for his very beautiful traditional thangka paintings, came to my studio. Even though he didn’t speak too much English and I don’t speak Tibetan, we were able to communicate through our art (and the help of wechat translater!) I was invited to visit him at Wutun monastery in Qinghai (Autonomous Tibetan Prefecture) and display my artpieces as part of my touring project to sacred sites around the world.
