Nature in Nguyen Thi Hoai Thuong’s Paintings
Throughout the history of art, the beauty of trees and flowers has always been a story that most artists love. The intense life and never-ending life cycle of nature has brought great inspiration to artists who look at it and then enter their minds depending on the perspective of culture and core values to form. different works. Artist Helen Thuong (Nguyen Thi Hoai Thuong) was moved by this life so that she could use visual language to simulate shapes and patterns and inject her artist ego into what she saw, turning that scene into “ new form of life” based on the old reality.
Born in 1987, Nguyen Thi Hoai Thuong graduated from Ho Chi Minh City University of Fine Arts in 2010 and has since attended many domestic and international exhibitions. In addition, she is also an active artist in volunteer activities when she donated her works to a project in conjunction with Operation Smile Vietnam. For each work sold, a tree will be planted on the hill of Phu Lam village, Tien Phuoc district, Quang Nam province – the artist’s hometown.
The style of Helen Thuong has great influence from Post-Impressionism and also carries with it the line and color thinking of Abstract. She looks for pure visual languages to connect with each person’s subconscious and inner emotions rather than letting her works be “imprisoned” in the basic space of vision. Although familiar, if you look closely at these practices, the experience of enjoying paintings tends to change over time, flexible and free according to the colorful subconscious beyond reality.
Nature, trees, birds are the interests of artist Nguyen Thi Hoai Thuong (Helen Thuong). The artist said: “I was born and raised in the countryside, so from a young age I was able to play with birds and flowers. From then on, when composing, beautiful childhood comes back, nature shows itself into the painting through the brushstrokes.”
There is always calculation in each color splash, pen streak, and dot, but that does not mean that it lacks the liberality and rhythmic flow in each of Helen Thuong’s works. Even though this is a seemingly disorderly expression, the works still shape a subject – an actual scene, not just an unusual randomness. Although her nature is close, it appears in a new form due to ingenious distillation, becoming a new “shell” for the core of reality.
