Recently, students from the Exploration class at VCVAA had the opportunity to participate in a special workshop led by artist Chú Môi – one of Vietnam’s prominent figures in Collage and Abstract Art. More than just a class, this was a chance for students to experience art from the perspective of a true artist, where inspiration and creativity unfold naturally.
The workshop, themed “Creating Natural Landscapes,” provided students with an in-depth look into the art of Collage. Under Chú Môi’s dedicated guidance, students explored the creative process, from cutting and arranging compositions to color coordination, bringing their artworks to life. Beyond techniques, the session was also a valuable opportunity for students to hear insightful stories from Chú Môi about his artistic journey, ways to find inspiration in the simplicity of everyday life, and how to transform it into unique works of art.
