Kunzang Wangmo | Organization for Youth Empowerment

 

 

My name is Kunzang Wangmo. I was honored to receive the Madanjit Singh Scholarship from the South Asian Foundation, allowing me to study at Beaconhouse National University in Lahore, Pakistan, in 2011. I graduated with a degree in Visual Communication and Design in 2015.

During my four years in Lahore, I had the privilege of interacting with and learning from a diverse group of talented students from across the Southeast region, many of whom have become recognized artists in their respective fields. This experience has significantly broadened my artistic perspective and influenced my creative endeavors.

Since graduating, I have dedicated my time to painting and closely collaborating with VAST, a contemporary art center in Thimphu. Some of my works are displayed in various VAST exhibitions and galleries.

I am profoundly grateful to the late Madanjit Singh and the South Asian Foundation for the scholarship that has been instrumental in shaping my journey as an aspiring artist.
