Tibetan Thangkas, which means literally 'scroll cloth painting' are original, authentic paintings created by the lineage of devout Buddhists whose family have been thangka painters for nine generations. They are committed to retain the quality and authenticity of these sacred paintings which are extremely rare to find these days. The thangkas of Windhorse Gallery are of absolute superior quality and have been created using only pigments of natural crushed gems and minerals including pure gold and silver.
The statues sold at Tibet Press Photos are extremely high quality, hand made pieces, each individually chosen for their workmanship, uniqueness and presence of Grace. They are produced by the traditional “lost wax” method; a timely process of hand casting. The final process of this is the intricate hand carving with precision master craftsmanship.
Tibetan Singing Bowls vibrate the sound of the universe. The singing bowl is essentially a heart-oriented experience. They can vibrate five individual and simultaneous tones, each at its own consistent frequency and can sustain these vibrations. It is believed that each part of our body has a natural resonance that responds to different sounds and their vibrations. Made of several metals, each holds a unique gift in its tone.
These necklaces are made from Antique Tibetan Coral, Amber and Turquoise. The beads are individually found and traded from exiled Tibetan families and strung together by Laara Cooper to form this exclusive collection for Tibet Press Photos. Each piece is unique and one of a kind.
Tibetan art is my major passion. It’s somewhat harder to “get into” than Chinese decorative arts because the imagery and purposes are often unfamiliar. In this session I will focus on providing some context for understanding and appreciating Tibetan art, with some pictures from Tibet and many examples of arts and crafts.
