Odmaa Uranchimeg was born in Ulaanbaatar in 1980. She received a degree in ceramic arts from the Institute of Fine Arts, Mongolia, and subsequently completed a printmaking residency in Daejon, Korea. Odmaa’s work skillfully weaves together references to Buddhist imaginaries, organic materials, and modernist abstraction. Her background in ceramics and printmaking prompts her method of combining diverse material in her sculptures, and playing with forms that allow her to reference eastern and western cultures. Her work has been featured in several biennales and solo exhibitions, including the Ulaanbaatar International Art Festival (2018), the Nakanojo Biennale (2019, Nakonogo, Japan), and the Land Art Mongolia Biennale (2018).
