Trần Tuấn was born in Huế, graduated from Huế College of Art with a degree in Traditional Decoration (2006).

As a multidisciplinary artist, Trần Tuấn does not limit his work into any category or format, but often lets the subject and context of the work lead the way. His main concern is about the human condition through marginalized stories in history, vulnerable communities under the rapid stratification of contemporary Vietnamese society.
