Viet Hung Vu

I am interested in lacquer - a technique and traditional material of Asian paintings. Strong and deep color of lacquer helps me convey emotion on Vietnam’s theme of traditional culture. Lotus and Quan Ho singing - a Vietnamese folk music style is the main theme in my works of art. Quan Ho singing is characterized by the improvisation “Call and respond” singing, I use visual languages in a stylized and simplified way, which primarily makes color movement in geometric art pieces so as to express the free adaptive spirit of Quan họ singing. Lotus lacquer paintings produce outstanding effects on color. I also experiment with acrylic paintings on Do paper on the theme of lotus, which is an impressive experience and allows me to freely express inspiration without dependence, only shows modulation of shapes and colors.
