Preface

“Phuc - Paint, Cut, Paste, Place" is a solo exhibition by Hoang Thien Phuc, featuring his creative achievement from mid 2019 till present, including more than 50 multimedia pieces ranging from oil painting, drawings to collage and installation. The artist’s creative process started out with him observing the worldview of those around and from there, trying to understand the internal issues within different social communities. Phuc chose oil painting as his main medium of expression, alongside en plein air (outdoors painting), cutting and pasting techniques of collage-making to convey forthwith his thoughts and feelings before they “cool down”. Phuc’s work, for that reason, is intuitive and rebellious, while always trying to avoid prearrangement.
