About

The Piece

VESSEL III carries a striking sense of focus and quiet drama. Working through her intuitive process of hand-dyeing, cutting, and stitching, Panda Landa allows the composition to emerge gradually, guided as much by feeling as by form.

Here, the luminous checkered interior seems to glow from within the deep, grounding field that surrounds it. Soft blush and pale citron tones shift subtly across the surface, animated by the gentle irregularities of the hand-dyed fabric. These small variations - the artist’s embraced “happy accidents” - give the work a warmth and authenticity that feels distinctly human.

The triangular form reads as both architectural and symbolic, a recurring language in Panda’s Vessel series that suggests containment, protection, and interior space. There is a beautiful tension between the bold outer frame and the delicate, almost tender interior.

Strong and contemplative on its own, VESSEL III becomes especially engaging when installed alongside other works from the Vessel series, where the forms begin to resonate across the wall.

About

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.
