The Piece
ALTAR III has a quiet, grounded presence that reveals Panda Landa’s sensitivity to color and structure. Working through her intuitive, improvisational process, Panda hand-dyes each fabric and assembles the composition through careful stitching, allowing subtle tonal shifts and organic irregularities to remain part of the work’s character.
The warm terracotta field gently frames a softer interior architecture, where pale blush and muted rose tones create a sense of depth and inward movement. There is a beautiful balance here between order and softness - the geometry feels considered, yet still alive and responsive.
This piece holds its own with quiet confidence, while, as with the Altar series more broadly, it becomes especially resonant when experienced alongside related works, where Panda’s language of color and form begins to fully unfold.
The Artist
The Artist
Panda Landa (b. 1982) is a queer, non-binary visual artist and filmmaker who creates vibrant mixed-media textile works using reclaimed, hand-dyed materials. Raised in the deserts of Nevada and now based in Joshua Tree, Panda draws inspiration from the quiet, open landscapes that shaped them, letting the colors, textures, and moods of the desert guide their work.
Self-taught in visual art, Panda works through instinct and improvisation, allowing each piece to develop naturally. Sustainability is central to their practice: every fabric is sourced second-hand and transformed through careful hand-dyeing, giving each artwork its own unique history. Their ongoing series - PORTAL, ALTAR, ECLIPSE, VESSEL, and more - explores themes of queerness, identity, ancestral narrative, healing, and transformation.
With a background in filmmaking, including their 2022 film ‘In the Middle of Everywhere’, Panda brings a strong sense of atmosphere and storytelling to their visual work. Their pieces invite viewers into a world shaped by emotion, color, and the quiet power of reclaiming and reimagining what already exists.
