Mongolian Pavilion at 2024 Venice Biennale

Mongolia
National
Exhibition
The exhibition "Discovering the Present from the Future" by Ochirbold Ayurzana in the Mongolian Pavilion explores the profound levels of consciousness. These sculptures, inspired by the Buddhist deity Citipati (Mongolian: Durtoddagva), comprise over 300 parts such as limbs, joints, and a three-eyed skull serving as a reminders of the impermanence of life that fosters spiritual transformation and search for higher consciousness and enlightenment in Buddhism. Each joint bears the likeness of Citipati representative of the evolution towards divinity. The symbolism extends to the skull of a three-eyed deity with two-eyes for humans and one-eye possibly signifying hell. This amalgamation of skeletal elements prompts diverse interpretations ranging from enlightenment to political commentary.
