Entangled Territories: Tibet Through Images—on now at the Museum of Anthropology at UBC (MOA) until March 29, 2026—reimagines Tibet by showing how it has been represented historically by outsiders, and how Tibetans themselves now present and talk about Tibet.
Dr. Fuyubi Nakamura, Associate Professor in the Department of Asian Studies and Curator, Asia at MOA, offers an online tour of the exhibition.
This exhibition highlights the importance of Tibet’s rich cultural heritage as well as its current political context. Developed in collaboration with Tibetan Canadian community members and artists, the exhibition showcases Tibet and Tibetans through their own lenses and voices.
It was developed in collaboration with the Lodoe Kunphel Tibetan Language School, BC at the Tsengdok Monastery in Vancouver, supported and operated by The Tibetan Cultural Society of British Columbia.
Supported in part by grants from the Rubin Museum of Himalayan Art and the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada.
