Artists in Residence

Artist Profiles.

Artist educators are selected to share their knowledge, skills and processes. The artists are encouraged to find connections between their art making and the traditional arts and crafts of Bhutan. Each artist brings a unique perspective. They are selected for their ability to translate their art making into meaningful lessons that give a deep appreciation of the unique and rich culture of Bhutan.

The artists who have shaped the residency — through their studio practice, teaching, and time alongside student teachers and children.
