Description
Human-crafted. AI-refined.

The artwork features a highly ornate and intricate frame that surrounds a group of people, likely children, standing together. The frame is decorated with elaborate floral and geometric patterns in warm, earthy tones. The central focus is the group of figures, depicted in a realistic style, gathered close together within the frame. The overall composition conveys a sense of unity and togetherness, with the ornate frame serving to elevate and contextualize the subject matter.

Nguyen Manh Hung
Artist
Nguyen Manh Hung
B.1976, Vietnamese

“Our lives are filled with conflicts – sometimes sad and sometimes humorous. My creative practice is an exploration of aspects of the national and cultural history of Vietnam, as well as personal and contemporary life experiences. I don’t aim to talk about anything specifically, preferring to focus on the visual relationships of disjointed elements and unusual scales. Influences include early and contemporary Surrealism.” Born in 1976 and raised and educated in Hanoi, Nguyen makes art that reflects the comical situations arising from the rapid yet piecemeal processes of domestic urbanization and modernization. As a multi-disciplinary artist, he is equally at ease painting as he is creating large-scale installations or exploring performative work. Nguyen’s particular realist style encompasses a distinctive sense of playfulness and humour that sets him apart from previous generations of artists. As the son of a fighter jet pilot, he draws on the personal in his paintings of aircraft. Depicting military planes laden down with oversized grocery items, or else soaring across the sky with bushels from the rice harvest, Hung’s surreal scenes humorously morph a symbol of destruction with conduits of hope, benevolence and joy. ...
