Trần Minh Đức

practice

tran minh duc (b.1982, vietnam) is a visual artist based in ho chi minh city, vietnam working with the mediums of performance, photography, collage and installation. through a multidisciplinary approach, duc seeks to explore collective memory and cultural archives by investigating historical narratives, the effects of colonialism and imperialism, and the lasting impacts of war and migration. duc graduated with a ba in painting from the college of culture and arts of ho chi minh city, and has since exhibited widely in vietnam and internationally. drawing on life in post-war vietnam and an education spanning the us and vietnam, her work diverges from socialist realism to confront hidden societal taboos — deconstructing the psychology of different social groups through structures of fantasy and introspection.
