For the first time ever, the exhibition has on display clay sculptures by Bhutanese women sculptors. Lhamo Chozom is one of the sculptors.
“In the past, such works were done only by men but now, with the change in time, I feel that nothing is impossible,” she said.
“Many people appreciated our work and some even asked us if we did it on our own.”
The exhibition is an initiative of VAST. It was first held in 2014 and has been an annual event since. It is on till November 24.
