Exhibition “Morning in the Mountains” by Nguyen The Hung
Craig Thomas Gallery
165 Calmette Street, Nguyen Thai Binh Ward, District 1,
The exhibition “Morning in the Mountains” is a solo exhibition of mixed media paintings by Hanoi-based artist Nguyen The Hung.
The idea for this collection was born from a volunteer project Hung participated in two years ago to teach drawing to children in the Ha Giang Highlands. While teaching the kids some basic skills, teachers in turn learned from them a pure way of seeing things that they had possibly forgotten.
