| 1999 Hemispheres United Airlines in-flight magazine. By Margaret Moore. |
A pensive young woman dressed in the traditional Vietnamese Ao Dai sits quietly, her gaze turned slightly away from the viewer. Three people bundled up against the cold walk down a rainy Hanoi street at midnight. In a country village, worshipers hurry to a pagoda carrying trays of fruit and incense to offer along with their prayers for good fortune.
In Memories of Vietnam, a series of oil paintings on canvas, Vietnamese artist Lan Nguyen presents a highly personal vision of her homeland. The stylized figures are people she has met or seen - shy young waitress in a Hanoi restaurant, three homeless people she encountered one winters night - but with an economy of detail and graceful play of proportions.
Nguyen creates images that transcend cultures and boundaries.
"I painted most of these works after leaving Vietnam in June of 1996", explains Nguyen, who now lives in Dubai. "I wasn't homesick exactly, but these memories were and still are very powerful for me. They are part of me and have helped to make me who I am".
