]]>Conversation with Tashi Nyima la
Hosted by Tenzing Dhamdul, FNVA
In this episode we engage with Tashi Nyima la. He is the co-founder of Khadhok Arts, alongside his colleagues Tenzin Melak and Lea Taake. This Tibetan arts collective was established in 2023 with the goal of nurturing Tibetan artists and providing them with a much-needed platform to showcase their work. In addition to their recent exhibition, “Dreaming Tibet,” where young Tibetan children displayed their artwork, they will host their annual exhibition titled “Unsettled,” which will run from November 1st onwards in Dharamshala, India.
In this podcast, Tashi Nyima shares his experiences and journey with art in the Tibetan exile community. He explains how his family had a significant influence on his artistic development through their support, encouraging him to pursue this profession. He also discusses how exposure to various art forms led him to focus on exile Tibetan art, which strongly relates to the community’s political and legal status, particularly in the context of his own freedom. He stressed on the fact how art connects Tibetans both inside and outside Tibet, with him stating that there is a very big artistic community inside Tibet. For him, art is a means to initiate much-needed debate within the community and serves as a powerful form of non-violent resistance through which one can convey their message. He hopes to raise global awareness about Tibet through his art and Khadhok Arts initiatives.
