Sculpture Exhibition "Seeds" by artist THAI NHAT MINH

“SEEDS”…
Story of ten thousand years ago (1)
And the appearing of life after three thousand years of dormant seeds (2)
Minh’s continuous story from 5 years ago (3),
And the continuous movements lying inside every shape.
A story about the pattern of virtues and the destruction
Or the launching platform of dreams.
Finally, everything will be the beginning and the hope
That is the story of “Seeds”…
Over the last 5 years, since his first sculptures “Seeds” appeared in the group exhibition New Form in Hanoi, Minh has been developing and exploring his idea on seeds of various materials, in different shapes. He will display all of them with his clever installation in a fabulously peaceful little place like Dong Phong Art Gallery at #3 Ly Dao Thanh street, from 03 June to 03 July, 2016, to create a nice and attractive solo sculpture show “Seeds”.
