The show presents the combination as a fate between ceramics and lacquer, between women and lotus flowers.
“Women are always the inspiration, passion and attraction for any men and lotus flowers are a symbol of simplicity, beauty, faith and perfection. Therefore, how can I ignore them in my artworks,” said Quang.
With bight tones of colors and innocent style, Quang’s works bring to visitors a delightful emotion of optimism in life and love for natural beauty.
*Another exhibition by young artist Tran Ngoc Duc has also opened at the museum. The show includes 22 works made in acrylic on canvas, presenting insight contradiction in young people’s souls in the modern life.
Themed “Without viewing point: Church, Belief and small people,” Duc depicts scenery on Saigon streets around the Saigon Notre-Dame Cathedral. Images of the imposing church are not aimed to present the religion but the relationship of people who have beliefs.
“It is really sad if we don’t have anything to believe in, although suspicions are everywhere,” said Duc.
He added that he hopes young people who are facing a tough time with the economic slowdown, mortal crisis or unfair life will still have something to believe in to overcome difficulties in life and not be stuck in desperation.
The exhibitions run until Thursday at the museum, 97A Pho Duc Chinh Street in District 1.
