Uuriintuya Dagvasambuu (Mongolian: ÃÂðóòðÃÂðüñÃÂÃÂóøùý îïÃÂøùýÃÂÃÂÃÂð) is a Mongolian artist. As a "contemporary master of Mongol Zurag", she incorporates traditional patterns and Buddhist motifs in her paintings and draws on experiences of Mongolian women and the everyday lives of post-nomadic Mongolia.
Dagvasambuu was born in 1979 in Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia. She received her bachelor's degree in 2002 from Mongolian University of Arts and Culture. Later in 2004, she graduated from the Mongolian State University of Education with a master's degree.
Dagvasambuu has exhibited extensively at international exhibitions such as Asia Pacific Triennial and Fukuoka Asian Art Triennale. She was part of the 2017 documenta 14 tour organized by Goethe Institute Mongolia in partnership with Mongolian Contemporary Art Support Association.
Dagvasambuu is married to a Mongolian artist and curator Batzorig Mart. In 2019, they had a joint exhibition exploring the extent of each other's influence on one another's work. Titled Assimilation Non-Assimilation, the exhibition was held at Art Space 976+, Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia.
