For over 500 years, Tibetans have been creating sacred images from pieces of silk. Much rarer than paintings and sculptures, these stitched fabric thangkas are among Tibet's finest artworks.

In this talk, author Leslie Rinchen-Wongmo will reveal the unique craftsmanship of an ancient needlework tradition, introduce sacred Buddhist deities, and share the extraordinary possibilities they embody, all through the lens of her own journey into Tibet.
