About Onongua Enkhtur
Onongua Enkhtur was born in Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia. 2016, she obtained her Fine Arts degree from the Mongolian State University of Arts and Culture.
The painting was the starting point for her artistic activities. In 2019, her research focused on Land Art and Textile artworks. She started engaging in performance art and installation projects.
In 2022, Onongua's first solo contemporary exhibition occurred at the Khan Art Gallery in Ulaanbaatar.
Her works primarily consist of land and textile art, utilizing knitting, embroidering, weaving, and mixed-media drawing techniques. However, she also creates some pieces in performance and installation art.
Onongua's artwork is influenced by her nomadic lifestyle and proximity to nature since childhood. Her artworks aim to convey the concept of loving Mother Nature and all its creatures and the intimate connection between humans and the earth. Furthermore, she tries to raise public awareness about global warming and desertification, which are facing us today. Artworks such as "Do not cast your shadow," "Spoilage," "Home," and" Weaving the World's Mane" help to encourage people to love and preserve nature with all its creatures.
