With a unique visual language rooted in personal introspection and Mongolian spiritual traditions, Unurbayar’s artistic evolution has taken her from Ulaanbaatar to global galleries and art fairs.

Early Life and Education
Buyankhishig Unurbayar was born in Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia, in 1989. Raised in a creative household, she was introduced to the world of art at a young age. Though she pursued a degree in International Journalism from the University of Humanities, her artistic inclinations remained central to her identity.

Her works, often characterized by layered oil techniques and symbolic motifs, reflect Mongolian philosophy and meditative stillness. Buyankhishig’s paintings have since been showcased in exhibitions across Portugal, Thailand, and Mongolia, attracting interest from collectors and curators alike.
A major highlight came in 2024, when several of her paintings were auctioned at Phillips, solidifying her presence in the international art market.

These events underscore her growing influence and the universal appeal of her visual storytelling.
