Vietnamese students in UK hold art exhibition
(VOV) -A contemporary art exhibition was launched by Vietnamese students in London from September 29 to October 5, telling stories about the first days overseas students set foot abroad and how they gradually adapted to the new situation and pursued their passion for art.
Between the overwhelming of cultural exchange and social network, the exhibition entitled “Settling” captures the state of experiencing the artist’s journey, whether it’s physical or emotional, in and out, or simply their merging phase of body, mind, and the surrounding.
Works range from abstract paintings, three-dimensional installations and photography that portray the sentiments or peculiar behavior of the artists.
Student Nguyen Ngoc Mai Huynh from the University College London (UCL) said five Vietnamese artists and friend from Hong Kong (China), through the exhibition, want to send a message on the need to adapt to a multi-cultural host society.
