Papaya is traditionally one of the emblematic fruits used for decorating in Tet because in Vietnamese, its name has a same pronounce as an adjective 'adequate'. Yet 'adequacy' is very abstract. Yet people are easily distracted by others' lights rather than appreciate their own ones.

This work employs several mediums on a synthetic mesh stretched across a designed frame, with an oil-on-canvas attached underneath.
I continue advancing the method that was developed from the conventional method of the Vietnamese silk painting. By employing oil paint or acrylic paint applied on the backside of the painting, the texture of the mesh is molded by these pasty pigments, and resulted in its own structure on the front side. And it creates the tactile effect.
With an oil-on-canvas attached underneath, I would like to illustrate the barrier between the visual art world and the blind or the visually impaired people.

A Vietnamese independent visual artist based in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam. My career started off as a commercial designer after I accomplished a major in Industrial Arts/Ceramic Art in Vietnam in 2005. After a period of postgraduate study in Japan (2011-2017), I returned to Vietnam and established my atelier. My practice is evolving towards the physical characteristics of visual and tactile sensation through the properties of materials. My works are expanded from ceramics to mixed-media surfaces. With an expectation of being able to extensively propose an art appreciation to even the visually impaired people, I considers the integration of tactile interpretation onto my visual artworks as an ‘inclusiveness’; and it is channeling my study into an investigation of the relationship between the ‘inclusive’ and the ‘exclusive’ aspect within a context of contemporary society.
