At 6pm on 28 September, The Factory would like to invite you to the opening of 2 latest exhibitions.
‘site / shine / sight’, a duo exhibition featuring collaboration between visual artist/filmmaker, Trương Quế Chi and architectural studio, vn-a marks the first time that visual art and architecture comes together at The Factory, in an attempt to explore how elements of light can be communicated, perceived, interpreted and even manipulated within the context and conditions of a contemporary art space. They will transform the space of The Factory Contemporary Arts Centre into a dim maze, where all light emits from the various sculpture, installation and photography within the recesses of particularly placed, structurally specific louvers. Such a staged arrangement of objects and architectural elements – the first event of its kind in Vietnam on this scale – seeks to create an atmosphere of a strange faraway place.

‘lamina | ink’, Kenny Ng’s first solo exhibition, will showcase a series of abstract characters, inspired by the diverse shapes and forms of mysterious deep sea organisms, combined with colonial and old temple architecture of Ho Chi Minh City. The architectural lines of these drawings tell a story of history and culture, both familiar and strange to Kenny, a young artist who was fortunately accepted to an arts program in the US.
