ANUnaran J. creates a series of Thangka-like paintings using historical photographs of cherished Mongolian figures. The images are mirrored as if they are encountering themselves reflected as one. Like ancient scroll paintings the works hang as precious objects or Thangkas. They are an interplay of contrasting shapes, highlights, and inverted tones. The images encourage us to explore Mother Nature as part of our own inner selves.

RETURN TO INNOCENCE features triangular felt shapes and deer figures suspended in a circle, evoking forgotten memories. The work draws inspiration from the symbolic significance of the antelope and horol on top of Buddhist temples. In Buddhist Secret Tantra, the male antelope represents collective peace, while the female symbolizes emptiness, with the Dharma wheel uniting these concepts. The combination of triangular shapes (from the Mongolian ger roof) and the antelope represents the protective, womb-like essence of nature. This installation conveys peace and safety, much like a meditation room or nursery, inviting contemplation on the boundary between the body and the natural world. The work is crafted from hand-felt, a simple and organic material.

Soft fluid imagery of the human form. The color makes us feel as if we are floating in water, in a healing bath, a womb. The title Crescendo reminds us of a piece of music as it intensifies in energy until it reaches its highest moment and then collapses. Gold and silver threads tie together the images with constellations of patterns. They are quiet moments, those luscious intimate places that we go to when we go inside ourselves and let the world go, a dreamlike presence in a sea of blissfulness. ANUnaran takes on a journey of the incredible feeling of completely letting go. A place of safety and peace.
