“TRANSFORMATION I”
2025 | Wool yarn, Rope | 120 cm x 50 cm
“Where Past Resilience Meets Present Freedom.”
“Transformation I” emerges from my ongoing exploration of the tapestry’s flat surface and the possibilities of breaking its traditional structure. In this piece, I discovered a form that embodies the intersection of two eras, different ways of thinking, values, and life purposes.
The materials and traditional weaving techniques evoke the resilience and struggles of previous generations, their perseverance, and their efforts to meet societal expectations. The red threads speak to the intensity of their lived experiences.
At the same time, the disintegration of form and the seemingly formless spatial expressions reflect the inner freedom of contemporary youth, their pursuit of self-development, and their search for meaning in conscious living. This work, for me, is a meditation on transition, transformation, and the enduring dialogue between past and present.
“TRANSFORMATION II”
2025 | Wool yarn, Rope, Metal | 400 cm x 100 cm, 60 cm
“The Flow of Transformation Revealed.”
Transformation II expands my explorations into three dimensions. By combining soft wool, flexible rope, and rigid metal, I create a dialogue of tension, endurance, and adaptability. Traces of tradition coexist with forms that break free, drawing viewers into a space where materiality, memory, and the inner search for meaning converge.
This work is more than art for me; it is an invitation to embark on an extraordinary journey of living consciousness and the expression of feeling. Through my stripped, barren compositions, I reflect both the fragility and resilience of the human experience, allowing viewers to witness transformation in its purest form.
Transformation III: WITHIN
2025 | Wool yarn, Copper wire, Metal | 150 cm x 60 cm
Embodying the Quiet Currents Within
With “WITHIN”, I explore the psychological vulnerability, inner conflicts, and hidden emotions that arise as we exist within society. I am interested in the subtle traces of feeling and sensitivity that persist even when unspoken, those quiet marks left by human relationships and experiences.
The torn, channel-like structure reflects personal wounds and the weight of psychological burden, while the copper and metal elements at the center evoke an inner essence hardened by pain and experience. Yet, the scars and imperfections also reveal resilience, reminding us of the strength that emerges through living, feeling, and enduring.
Through this work, I aim to give form to the invisible currents of the inner self, a space where vulnerability, experience, and the search for understanding coexist.
Transformation IV: The Creator
2025 | Wool yarn, rope, metal | 50 cm x 40 cm
The moment breath awakens,
The force of creation surges through my veins,
flowing like a waterfall between worlds.

​Batchimeg’s works, stripped of excess and ornament, reveal their essence. They are finished, yet alive; simple, yet infinite. They remind us that art is a meditation, a dialogue with the materials, with space, with life itself - an echo of our own inner transformations.
For me, this exhibition was a rare experience: vivid, clear, and deeply resonant, a testament to art’s power to reveal, to transform, and to connect.
