A mother and son's journey into Thangka art

01:37

Thangka has long whispered stories of gods and wisdom through its vibrant pigments and gold leaf. For centuries, it was more than art – it was a spiritual language in Xizang. A mother with her family traveled thousands of kilometers from northeast China to Xizang to learn this art form. They hope to carry Thangka further: to show its beauty to more eyes, to teach its craft to willing hearts, to let this ancient art breathe again.
