"Interdependence is about being interdependent with your surroundings. Otherwise you don’t have your existence. Otherwise you are not what you are. Otherwise you are invisible," Bidhata K C. bidhatakc is a contemporary artist based in Nepal. Through installations, paintings, and prints, she primarily investigates issues of identity, material culture, and relations between the old and the new in our daily lives. Bidhata K C's art has been featured in the Rubin Museum of Himalayan Art's 2023-2024 exhibition Reimagine: Himalayan Art Now, as well as exhibited globally. Learn more about the lived experiences that have shaped her art, how she navigates her relationship to the Buddhist themes of interdependence and impermanence, and more in our latest #Spiral interview. 🔗 in bio! ________ Bidhata K C; Out of Emptiness; 2023; metal cans; image courtesy of the artist #BidhataKC #RubinMuseum #HimalayanArt #RubinGlobal
