Sandar Khaing Art for Sale at Auction

b. 1971 -

One of Myanmar’s leading contemporary female artists, Sandar Khaing is known for her brightly coloured series of large female nudes. Sandar Khaing had a residency in Rimbun Dahan in 2014. The inspiration for The Naked Truth With Camera series began from asking one of her nude models to hold a camera when posing. She realized the act of holding the camera empowered the model. Sandar presents the beauty of lines through emphasizing the model’s curvaceous body. Her work has been showcased in more than thirty exhibitions locally and internationally, including Thailand, Indonesia, Singapore, Hong Kong, London and the United States. She has exhibited at Art Stage Singapore and London’s Saatchi Gallery START Art Fair. Solo exhibitions include Contentment Cows at Lokanat Gallery, Yangon (2011), The Naked Truth at Loren Knuson’s House, Chiang Mai, Thailand (2009), Sandar Khaing Solo Show at Studio Square, Yangon (2006). Group exhibitions include Blue Wind International Art Festival at Yangon (2010), Ongoing Echo 2nd Art Exchange Indonesia–Myanmar at Tanah Tho Gallery, Bali, Indonesia (2011).
