In Hyderabad’s Kalakriti Art Gallery, an exhibition by Myanmar artists rides on themes of optimism, spirituality and peace

The Hindu  

Travel and spirituality are among the recurring concepts explored in Voices From The Golden Land, an exhibition of artworks by Myanmar artists on view at Kalakriti Art Gallery, Hyderabad. Artworks by Than Kyaw Htay, S. Moe Z, Win Zin and Nay Hlaing Win are on view, curated by Ivy Lin. I expressed my wish that Burmese artworks should be seen and appreciated by more people since these artists rarely get a platform to share their voices with the world.” Ivy Lin describes Voices from the Golden Land as a celebration of Myanmar’s culture, diverse ethnicities, traditions and music, as the artworks tell stories of empathy, peace and resilience. Both S Moe Z and Than Kyaw Htay’s works discuss the idea of hope within adversity, Ivy Lin points out.
