Knock Knock: Kesang Lamdark Solo Exhibit

Why We Recommend it

Artist Kesang Lamdark’s practice juxtaposes imagery from classical Tibetan art with that found in an imported Chinese consumer culture.

 

Description

Born in exile in Dharamsala, India, Lamdark sought refuge in Switzerland, where he was raised and educated before moving to New York to attend university.

His father is a Rinpoche, a reincarnated lama. The artist’s work continuously attempts to reconcile the social, spiritual and political asymmetries of his Tibetan-Western identity.

The show’s title refers to from the repetitive sound the artist makes as he hammers tiny holes to create micro-pointillist lightboxes and aluminium can sculptures.
