Taking place from November 2-10 at the Vietnam Fine Arts Museum, the exhibition "Vietnamese sausagey" aims to enhance traditional cultural values through materials and images of lotus flowers; convey the message of healing through the language of art to the community and create an open space for creativity and artistic experience.
The exhibition displays 41 paintings on traditional materials such as lacquered do paper, silk and 3 wood sculptures by 3 authors: Trang Thanh Hien, Hoang Huong Giang and Dinh Thi Kim Lien.
The works of author Trang Thanh Hien revolve around the theme of Buddhism on graphic prints combined with Chinese ink and watercolor. The works of Hoang Huong Giang are about lotus and flowers on do paper and lacquer. The works of Dinh Thi Kim Lien are about festivals and village life on lacquer and do paper.
Hoang Huong Giang's Vietnamese sausagey style is filled with emotion through her fresh spring lotus paintings. Her paintings are imbued with the poetic, ethereal ideas of life.
Also a lotus, the Vietnamese sausagey art of Trang Thanh Hien is somewhat simpler and calmer. With the ingenuity of a long-time researcher of Buddhist culture, looking at her paintings, viewers seem to see open questions about their own lives inside.
The question of a long journey, which the Vietnamese sausagey stream of life will help us to retain in the depths of the past. And, Dinh Thi Kim Lien's paintings are those moments, in very impressive expressions of people's faces.
In the midst of life's chaos, to be able to draw, to be able to love with one's own passion, sometimes for women it is a trade-off.
The exhibition "Vietnamese Sausagey" is a transparent underground stream full of longing and love. On traditional materials: lacquer, do paper... the works are like the mark of a journey in which each female artist has searched for values imbued with Vietnamese culture.
