Yangdzom Lama is a London-based artist whose work consists of paintings, embroideries, prints, and ceramics that often incorporate creatures and nature in the form of animal-headed people and deities. She is influenced by Tibetan Buddhist art and symbolism thanks to her Yolmo heritage, a Tibetan ethnic group that has lived in Nepal for generations. In 2017, Yangdzom was diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder (ASD), which has helped her in embracing herself not only as an artist but as a human being.
