Artwork: Dragon Gleam
The work is inspired by the Baroque painting called The Happy Family (1668) by artist Jan Steen. The reason I chose this source of inspiration is because I wanted to create a new, unique work. The intersection between Vietnamese art culture and contemporary art culture is what I aimed for when creating this work
