Publisher's Synopsis
"Thao Nguyen Phan is internationally renowned for her poetic, multi-layered artworks which explore the historical and ecological issues facing her homeland Vietnam, while speaking to broader ideas around tradition, ideology, ritual and environmental change. Featuring texts by Anne Barlow, Joan Jonas, Thao Nguyen Phan, Arlette Qußynh-Anh Tran and Pen Sereypagna, this exhibition catalogue explores the creation of Phan's unique artistic language, bringing painting, sculpture and filmmaking together to generate a sensation of the 'tangible in the intangible'. It covers both existing works and Phan's new three-channel video work and painting series First Rain, Brise Soleil, (2021-ongoing)"--publisher's description.
