“Exposure” is the first art exhibition that gathers the lesbian community from various cities and provinces to come together and express their hopes and dreams.
Nowadays contemporary art allows more and more people to expand their ability to absorb and to create, as well as to utilize all the materials from art and real life. More importantly, it creates opportunities and stimulates unheard voices in today Vietnam’s full of prejudices society, enabling them to be spread and shared. Within several months, during multiple training and sharing sessions of emotional and touching stories, I have tried to give these young people inspiration and love for art. In combination with immense support from members of CSAGA, “Exposure” exhibition finally is ready for public display in these beautiful spring days.
“Exposure” is the first time these young people experience and put to test their creativity with different materials as well as mediums of contemporary art, ranging from photo and sound installation art, photography, photo voice, video, book art, stop motion to paintings and sketch… This gallery is the diverse voices, as diverse as life itself. Each and every work is a story from deep, hidden angles and corners of their souls, now is given the chance to shine its dazzling lights.
Spring brings about dreams and hope. “Exposure” will also be a beautiful starting point for love and purity to win against darkness within a human being.
Exhibition “Exposure” will open on 22 Feb and be on display until 02 Mar 2017, 8.30 am – 5 pm at Vietnam University of Fine Arts, 42 Yet Kieu, Hanoi.
