CHAU NGUYEN

Chau Nguyen is a first-generation Vietnamese interdisciplinary artist, whose work draws from concepts of translation, memory, symbols, affect theory, materiality, and research on Vietnamese histories. They work to convey this notable friction at the intersection of cultural identity, colonial fragments, and transnationalism through their art and their study.

Monet, 2022

MDF panel on wooden frame and lacquer paint

$4,500

“Each finished work is a CNC-machined version of a hand painted Western masterpiece copy found at commercial painting galleries in Hanoi, Vietnam. The work is recreated without the pictorial plane (the colonial influences), leaving behind the traces of labor (the textures of the thick paint).”
