2118

8 June 2022

Bhutanese film-maker and buddhist teacher Khyentse Norbu was honoured to be one of the 83 artists invited to exhibit at the prestigious 58th International Art Exhibition – La Biennale di Venezia, curated by Ralph Rugoff.

Khyentse Norbu’s short black-and-white film “2118”, which showed at the Biennale, is a mysterious, contemplative allegory that takes the viewer, wordlessly, into the heart of one of the most profound truths of buddhist philosophy. The film features a mostly amateur cast of monks and tulkus (reincarnated past masters) and a mostly non-professional crew.
