“Harvest, the golden hues evoke the poetic allure of a ripe field. The textured amber expanse whispers of abundance and the cycle of life, where each brushstroke is a hymn to the earth’s generosity. Darker, shadowy lines intersect, suggesting the inevitable passage of time and the shadows that dance upon life’s bounty. This interplay of light and dark captures the ephemeral nature of harvest.”

Next project | Tự vấn

AI ngày càng trở thành trí tuệ siêu việt và con người ngày càng phụ thuộc vào máy móc. Khủng hoảng hiện sinh đang đẩy chúng ta vào chân tường với những câu hỏi day dứt về tính nhân văn trong cuộc sống. Là một kiến trúc sư, Tôi đang đối diện với chính bản thể của mình để trả lời cho câu hỏi cốt lõi:

Photo by Vinhho, Maison d’Art

Liệu kiến trúc có còn khả năng dẫn dắt con người chạm vào bản thể tự nhiên, nguyên sơ của họ – thay vì chỉ chạm vào những bản sao hoàn hảo nhưng vô hồn của công nghệ?

Để trả lời, Tôi phải trầm mình vào thực thể cuộc sống, để thân xác sống động của mình hòa quyện vào thế giới hiện tượng – nơi ánh nắng, gió thoảng, mùi đất ẩm, sự mát lạnh của đá và tiếng lá xào xạc không còn là đối tượng quan sát từ xa, mà trở thành sự giao thoa (chiasm) đảo ngược: tôi chạm vào thế giới, và thế giới chạm lại vào tôi. Chỉ khi đôi tay không chỉ lướt trên bàn phím mà còn thực sự xúc chạm trực tiếp với ánh mặt trời, với vỏ cây thô ráp, với hơi thở của không gian, thì bản năng nguyên thủy mới được đánh thức. Kiến trúc chân chính không phải là hình khối trừu tượng hay mô phỏng kỹ thuật số; nó là nghệ thuật của sự hiện diện vật lý (embodiment), nơi thân xác con người trở thành phương tiện để cảm nhận sự dịch chuyển. Trong sự hỗn độn ấy, con người không còn là chủ thể tách biệt quan sát thế giới như đối tượng, mà là một phần của sự sống – nơi cảm nhận và cái được cảm nhận đan xen, không thể phân định. Chính sự gắn kết giác quan đa chiều này – haptic (xúc giác), olfactory (khứu giác), auditory (thính giác), cùng với thị giác – mới giúp chúng ta lấy lại sự cân bằng giữa thế giới ảo và thế giới thực, giữa bàn phím lạnh lẽo và hơi ấm của thiên nhiên.

Next project | Garden of Eden

Garden of Eden

The Garden of Eden is an embodiment of the invisible woven into the fabric of existence. Its design reflects a poetic dialogue where nature’s abstraction meets architectural form. The undulating lines and textured surfaces echo the silent whispers of the earth, creating a harmonious interplay between light and shadow. This spatial composition blurs the boundaries of the tangible, inviting contemplation of the unseen. Through the use of natural materials and organic forms, the garden becomes a sanctuary of tranquility, mirroring the serene and introspective essence of the divine landscape.

Next project | Wooden Carving House

For generations, the wood carving craftsmanship of Hue carpenters has been etched into history. Intricate embossed patterns on armrests, beams, arches, and panels reveal the profound artistry embedded within each wood grain.
The touch of the craftsman is incredibly refined. As the chisel glides along the wood grain to remove the excess, the shapes of phoenixes, flowers, and leaves emerge, filling the void with intricate beauty. The wooden panels are not merely decorative; the dual framing system creates overlapping layers, adding spatial depth and transforming physical boundaries into the perception of infinity.
These exquisite carvings have elevated Hue’s palaces, temples, pavilions, mausoleums, and traditional homes beyond mere material structures to the realm of emotional art. This mastery has earned them recognition as a UNESCO World Heritage.
The pride lies in the soul delicately carved by talented artisans from across the nation, each seeking to present their finest beauty to the Buddhas, Kings, and Ancestors.

Next project | Forest Station

Returning to the forest is like being immersed in pure silence. Each breeze caressing the skin penetrates deep into each cell to wake up the body after a long deep sleep. The breath slowly fills all the skin, making the whole body immersed in the sweetness of heaven and earth. Returning to that place is the way returning your true home.

Amid the chaos of modern life and urban development, where humans are in constant, fast motion, nature is an important element to remind ourselves of and return to. In this duo exhibition by Patricia vd Moreen and Devon Nguyen, we find ourselves stepping into another world filled with harmony between humanity and nature.
“Biophilia and Naturalis” features the most recent works by two unique artists. Works of oil paintings and ceramics call to mind living entities glowing in the darkened space and reveal the connection between humanity and nature. While Patricia’s works highlight the concept of Naturalism, Devon’s works speak for the concept of Bipholia, which emphasises the harmony between humans and nature.

Next project | Cloud

Solid and rough are the emotions of BAOLOC. Spatial topography consists of interlaced hills, layers hidden under layers of cold pine forests. In that autumn silence, the clouds are the witch who transforms to soften the rough, dry and cold.

Following the wind, the stream flows in all directions,
The foggy road is dotted with flying dew drops.
Love is drunk at night in dreams,
Filled with the call of the human realm.
