Join us for 'INSIDE OF ME', a solo exhibition by Nguyen Thi Chau Giang.

"The dragon is an animal that was born from the imagination but exists throughout human history - a symbol of both power and strength. In Vietnam and Asia, the Dragon is the power of life, a symbol of goodness, luck and prosperity, symbolic of the best and noble things in human life. In the West, the dragon is often described as a wicked creature capable of spitting fire, and often represented as an evil force. Because of his ability to "appear and disappear suddenly", as well as his own antagonistic properties, the Dragon is full of internal contradictions - it is very lissome but extremely powerful, very true but is the image of the imagination only. Clear but vague, a good character but also a villain, an ancient character but still contemporary. And so I borrowed the image of the dragon to talk about the inner contradictions within people and the fate of the Vietnamese Woman in particular."
