Mifa Vietnamese, b. 1990

Mifa (b. 1990), graduated from Ho Chi Minh City University of Architecture in 2013, is currently a painter living and working in Da Nang. Since 2015 she has focused on researching and experimenting with acrylic paints on traditional Vietnamese Diep paper. Her works delve into the depth of the harmony and conflict of Eastern identity in the era of globalisation that runs parallel with the desire to preserve and develop the folk spirit through the form of painting. Her artistic experience is the study and attempt to reproduce the painting techniques of ancient Eastern civilizations such as texture patterns, gilding, calligraphy, watercolour, manual printing, paper mounting .. combined with personal techniques inspired by the surface of Vietnamese lacquer paintings.
