Nyein Chan Su (NCS) was born in 1973 and from an early age he was interested in painting and colour. He is a graduate of the State School of Fine Arts, and has taken part in more than 20 group exhibitions and seven solo shows, including a few exhibitions abroad.

Nats are spirits worshipped in Burma and every year the Burmese artist Nyein Chan Su visits the most famous Taung Pyone Nat festival. Always keen as a child to join in the Nat dancing festival, the artist constantly returns to the Nat dancers as a source of inspiration. "I was totally inspired by those noises: violent and loud music sounds, Nat songs, flower's scent, strong odour of burning smelly sticks, cigar's smell, liquor's smell..."

The artist took several documentary photographs and made vinyls from them. Once they were completed, the artist painted on top of them 'collaborating to the dance.' The resulting works shows great communication, interaction and significance between the layers.

With the artist's bold brushstrokes, the Nat dancers are in a world of their own.
