Nomin Bold is a multidisciplinary artist, trained and specialized in Mongolian traditional painting Mongol Zurag. Bold’s work focuses on a critical approach to Mongolian’ society transition into modernity in a global era. The artist departs from personal experience expressing internal struggles in a generation experiencing friction between tradition and modernity. Bold’s oeuvre brings an unexpected combination of heterogeneous visual elements full of detailed references and symbols. Buddhist imagery in Nomin’s art serves as motifs and emblems of past traditions placed amid contemporary commodification. Her compositions are inspired by questions about the nature of tradition and how it can be subverted, transfixed and transformed by modernity.  

Born in 1982 in Mongolia, Nomin Bold studied visual arts at the Mongolian University of Arts and Culture in Ulaanbaatar. Bold’s work has been exhibited in the 14th edition of Documenta, Kassel, Germany, 2020-2021 Bangkok Art Biennale, The 14th International Biennial of Contemporary Art, Oscar Niemeyer Museum in Curitiba, Brazil, 8th Asia Pacific Triennial of Contemporary Art in the Queensland Art Gallery and Gallery of Modern Art in Australia, and the 2nd International Art Biennial in Bodrum, Turkey.
