Anay Ngawang Chodak - Meditative Awareness of Inner Beauty
Giclée print on fine art cotton canvas, Signed Open Edition
15.75 x 22.5 IN
2022
This painting presents the meditative state of the mind. The superficial faces of peaceful and wrathful that would usually affect us are in the state of no difference and in a calm state. The skull in the painting represents death and serves as a reminder of impermanence. The female figure symbolizes elevating the female qualities of wisdom and away from our lustful and objectifying thoughts. The interconnectedness links represent the interconnectedness we share beyond any aspect of life.
About the Artist:
Anay Ngawang Chodak, born in 1980, is a Tibetan traditional thangka master, an emerging Tibetan contemporary artist, and a devoted Buddhist practitioner. He is a direct descendant of the Repa Dorje Chang lineage, one of Jetsun Milarepa’s yogi disciples. As the artist-in-residence from 2003 to 2021, he dedicated his artistic mastery to one of the most notable and extensive Buddhist projects for His Holiness the 14th Dalai Lama and Rangjung Neljorma Khandro Kunga Bhuma Rinpoche. After completing the Buddhist project, Anay Ngawang Chodak unfolds a unique contemporary interpretation of his artistic fusion of styles from Newa Paubha, Kashmiri-style Alchi, and Tibetan art. His playful yet mesmerizing spiritual abstractions of the profound and timeless essence of interconnectedness and compassion take a new breath of life to connect with the contemporary audience. He currently lives between Kathmandu, Nepal, and New York City.
