4 Creatives In Bhutan Blazing A Trail In Contemporary Art - including Pem Lham
A new generation of creatives has joined the old guard in keeping the artistic spirit of Bhutan alive, but this time with a contemporary twist. If you find yourself lucky enough fly over the majestic Himalayas and land in the Kingdom of Bhutan, you’ll soon be greeted by the multi-dimensional beauty of a Bhutanese contemporary art exhibition at the Paro International Airport. The majority of artists who contributed to the collection are affiliated with the local organization, Voluntary Artists’ Studio of Bhutan (VAST), founded in 1998 to empower and foster contemporary art in Bhutan. With the support of His Majesty The King and the mentorship of VAST’s pioneering Founder, Asha Kama, Bhutanese creatives are helping to shape the landscape of art in the Kingdom. It is clear VAST is contributing to the collective imagination and vitality of the country. Take it from Passang Dema, the Executive Director of VAST, who insists that the organization would be listed “Number 1” on the “Forbes Happiness 500 List.”
