About The Artwork
The Tibetan people have lived in a state of statelessness ever since the People’s Republic of China gained complete control over Tibet. Those that sought refuge in India now find themselves trapped in stateless limbo without any avenues to attain citizenship. Several generations of Tibetans have grown up in India, never having set foot in their ancestral land, yet they are perceived as foreigners within the Indian borders. Meanwhile, in the Tibetan region, the Tibetan population is gradually becoming a minority due to the influx of Han Chinese migrants, further diminishing the voice of the remaining Tibetans. The painting captures the essence of the Tibetan landscape nestled in the majestic Himalayan mountains, where Mount Everest proudly stands, covered in a pristine coat of snow. Along the bottom edge of the enchanting terrain, fiery pine trees are layered as flames. On the left side of the canvas, a Tibetan monastery emerges with colorful prayer flags waving in the breeze. These flags hold profound significance. They carry the prayers of peace, prosperity, wisdom, and compassion, ready to be carried away by the gentle breeze. Each color bears its own symbolism: blue represents the boundless sky, white signifies the purity of the air, red embodies the passionate flames, green evokes the calming presence of water, and yellow denotes the nurturing earth. In the foreground, a Tibetan figure takes center stage, cal in a traditional Chiba robe gracefully fastened on her right side, crafted meticulously from supple lamb skin. Atop her head rests a fox fur hat, completing her ensemble. Her jewelry serves as a testament to the deep-rooted reverence found in her Buddhist faith and as a cherished part of her dowry. Turquoise, amber, coins, shells, and silver are intricately worn by her embodying the unique ornaments treasured by the Tibetan people, each carrying its own story and significance.

Amy, an artist and designer, hails Los Angeles as her creative home but leads a nomadic life, traveling the world alongside her husband in their venture, The Sundry Productions, encompassing film, art, and fashion. Her journey commenced at the Fashion Institute of Technology, where she honed her skills as a fashion designer and illustrator, eventually rising to lead designer for a contemporary dress line bringing her from living in Manhattan to Los Angeles. Fueled by a desire for adventure and a love for art, Amy and her husband embarked on globetrotting escapades. Their mission wasn't just exploration; it was a pursuit to connect with local communities and celebrate indigenous fabrics. These treasures became the foundation for Amy's unique one of a kind dresses and bespoke wedding gowns. She also played a pivotal role in helping launch an ethical fashion line alongside other designers. In 2010, Amy's life took an extraordinary turn when she and her family moved to Kenya, Africa to create a television show for children living in Nairobi's slums. Amy's creative talents shone as she crafted puppets, designed costumes, and wrote for the show alongside local filmmakers with the hope of uplifting other’s crafts and gifts. Returning to the U.S., Amy remained active in her community, but her life became increasingly nomadic. From 2012 onwards, she has explored diverse cultures while evolving her multidisciplinary art skills. Her inaugural painted collection in 2019 named “Fashion Icons” received affirmation of her new passion and has proven to be a sustainable pursuit. After 2020 Amy has focused her energy and time painting her portrait series addressing the global issue of statelessness while being on location in New Orleans, Chicago, Baton Rouge, Albuquerque, and Los Angeles. Amy's story is a peregrination of creativity, compassion, and an unyielding desire for understanding while offering a mirror to the world's complexities through the visual story of her subjects.
