Dat Dao Van Thanh
Artist’s Statement
Biography
I was born in in 1994. I studied architecture at Hue college of science at Hue University. And since emigrated to Australia in 2019 I have painted acrylic on Canvas, oil, and watercolour on papers from my studio (Beo Artroom) in Hue city, Vietnam. I have always preferred to paint in a finely detailed representational
style which depicts people, animals and places as they really appear. However i also like surrealism, which shows a real but strange world, and so I will sometimes combine different scenes together into one painting to create this surreal effect. I always want to be able to illustrate the traditional materials, cultures of the Ethnic groups in my country and that is a part of the
"multiracial" culture in the beautiful country of Australia.Exhibitions
