Yeshe Walmo Sculpture created by William Rock

Gold-bronze metallic pigment and resin, 36×14 x 9 inches

William Rock created the sculpture of Yeshe Walmo. As far as is known, no other sculpture of Yeshe Walmo, the Tibetan Bon deity of healing and protection exists. This historic endeavor represents the first time ever a Western sculptor has been engaged in this way by the Tibetan Bon tradition, and possibly in Tibetan Buddhism in general. William Rock’s sculpture of Yeshe Walmo has been acknowledged as authentic by His Holiness The 33rd Menri Trizin the worldwide spiritual leader of Tibetan Bon.

The sculpture of Yeshe Walmo took William Rock over two years to create and the adherence to the strict governing of iconographic detail inherent in Tibetan Bon sacred art was observed.

– His Holiness The 33rd Menri Trizin, worldwide spiritual leader of Tibetan Bon, to William Rock on May 27, 2013
