The exhibition brings the viewer to another world, where the rustling of the wind through the bushes and the blooming flowers become the material to evoke emotions. Each delicate brushstroke on the soft silk background makes the viewer feel like they are immersed in the gentle movement of nature.
The exhibition "Xôn xao" includes silk paintings revolving around people and plants in living spaces.
The artist shared: "Nature and people are one of the big topics that have followed me in recent years. It must be said that post-Covid-19 has changed my perspective in many aspects. I always want to be more positive and spread more soothing emotions. In the midst of the hustle and bustle of life, I want to record peaceful moments when we watch a bush swaying in the wind, a bush of flowers blooming, the rustling of grass and trees gently stirring our souls. I love such peaceful moments."

Mot Qua Tang’s silk paintings are not simply a recreation of natural landscapes, but also a combination of sophisticated techniques and creative artistic thinking. In each work, she demonstrates her ability to master the delicate color transition technique on silk, depicting the translucent beauty typical of this material. This makes the works not only vivid in image but also brings emotional depth, inviting viewers to feel the excitement in every small movement of the plants.
Each picture is like a diary page
Each painting seems to tell stories of memories, linked to the artist’s living space and personal experiences. It is an image of small green patches in the heart of the city, peaceful flower gardens in memory. The artist said that it was the absence of nature in the small room where she lived that inspired her to create paintings of plants, as a way to fill the void and find a connection with nature.
"Seeing something that moves me, I can record it, turning the beauty of the moment into eternal beauty. The emotional flow between the object, the artist and the viewer is connected. For me, each work is a way to convey and communicate with people. Despite the ups and downs, the ups and downs of emotions, I have painted with the most calm brushstrokes," confided artist Mot Qua Tac.
"Love.Me.Trap"
The exhibition "Xon Xao" is not only a personal artistic journey of Mot Qua Tac, but also an invitation for viewers to join her in finding peaceful moments in life. In the context of a bustling modern society, each painting becomes a quiet stop, where viewers can temporarily put aside all worries and immerse themselves in the gentleness of nature.
