Thangka Conservation
The Himalayan Buddhist devotional works on cloth (thangkas)—both paintings and embroideries—in this exhibition were made for, and are used in, religious practice in Buddhist monasteries and temples across Bhutan.
Over time they have inevitably become worn and soiled from handling; exposure to dust, soot, insects, and light; and simple aging. Some have also suffered damage from handling and from accidents. While the traditional care given the thangkas has helped to minimize these problems, these perishable works have gradually and cumulatively become more fragile and in need of restoration.
To return the thangkas as much as possible to their original appearance, conservator Eddie Jose of the Honolulu Academy of Art and Mark Fenn of Asian Art Museum worked with a select group of Bhutanese Buddhist monks to clean and repair them. In this way not only were the thangkas prepared for this exhibit, but the monks have also been trained to continue to care for these and all the other thangkas in their temples and monasteries.
