Description
Inspired by pin-up art, the artist blends model imageries from posters and lifestyle magazines with decorative motifs from Vietnam's architectural history. The geometric lines, echoing Western influences, intertwine with the soft curves of Eastern design, skillfully creating layers of distinct spatial dimensions. This fusion reflects the ongoing convergence and tension between traditional and modern elements, highlighting their influence on social values and core attitudes. This process stirs reflection on cultural, social, and moral quality, fueling the artist's creative energy.
