"Passers By" by Ho Hung @ Vin Gallery

 Join us for the Vernissage of 'Passers By' a solo exhibition of new watercolour paintings by Vietnamese artist Ho Hung.

Ho Hung’s watercolours capture the ephemerality and the subtle sensuousness of the everyday. Dappled light, warm colours and empty spaces characterize his style and his view onto the landscape of his homeland of Southern Vietnam.

Travelling from place to place and painting on the street Ho Hung records people passing by and is himself a stranger and a passerby to his subjects. 

The fragility of these encounters surfaces in the free flowing and unpredictable quality of the watercolour. Similarly his views of Old Saigon and its weathered buildings remind us that everything is temporary and life itself is just passing by.

A technically skilled painter, Ho Hung has exhibited in multiple exhibitions across the country including solo exhibitions at Hue Fine Arts University and at the Fine Arts University HCMC. He is continuously gaining acclaim and notoriety for his work.
