Lee demonstrates expresses peoplewith vivacious colours yet in a serious manner and exhibits his productions inpublic places. Jo addresses the issue of urban redevelopment by paying attentionto the naratives of individuals situated in insecure circumstances in a societywhere community comes first.
"Through their own art, theartists have pointed out and evoked possibilities of connection, cognition,understanding and discovery of things unseen or un-thought," said NguyenAnh Tuan, another exhibition curator.
Using a distinctly designedtechnology system, License 2 Draw Laser Target Shooting by Uu Dam Tran Nguyen offers viewers the ability to co-create and interact with artin the present, ignoring time and spatial boundaries.
Oanh’s work is a sculptural lightinstallation consisting of a projection of miniature ‘lacquer skins’ onto atranslucent silk screen, whereas Hà goes beyond traditional plastic art limitsby using organic materials, shifting from being a consumer good to art.
