Gallery

The Wild Gallery is featuring works by creative visual artists related to the Tibetan World. This selection showcases a range of work by the contemporary Tibetan artist Kelsang Lamdrak who is based in Switzerland.

Kelsang Lamdrak was born in Dharamsala, India in 1963 and grew up in Switzerland. After apprenticing and working as a interior architect there, he studied at the Parsons School of Design in New York, and Colombia University. Searching for appropriate cultural space for himself, he always felt like an outsider until eventually he came to understand and reconnect with his heritage while living in the west. His displaced multicultural upbringing allowed him a broad personal energy. As an artist he combines unusual materials and ultimately his life and work are about bringing together the unfamiliar. From Tibet to India, Switzerland to America, from hair to plexi and butter to nail polish, his unusual background is the driving force behind his art.
