"Bliss" presents a collection of artworks inspired by Vajrayana Buddhism (Tantric Buddhism), psychedelics, shamanism, and the tangible and intangible culture of Bhutan.

Bliss, in Sanskrit, is known as Mahasukha, which means immortal pleasure or supreme bliss. It is the highest state of Buddhist perfection that transcends the realm of being and the changing world; a state of mind that is free from rational thinking and social customs and rituals. In order to generate compassion for sentient beings through contemplation and practice, it is important to understand the true meaning of bliss. 

Bhutan's tangible culture- traditional paintings, sculptures, textiles and temples- and intangible culture- such as the knowledge, wisdom, practice and oral transmission of Buddhism, which are tools for the exploration of consciousness- inspire the works in this exhibition. In bold colors and free-style patterns the artists combine traditional icons and symbols with realistic or semi-realistic portraits to explore concepts such as non-duality, consciousness and compassion.

Visit "Bliss" between 3 August - 3 September 2023 at RCB Photographers' Gallery 1, 2nd floor of River City Bangkok. Free admission.
