Loan Nguyen
Information on current and future exhibitions of the VERBUND COLLECTION.
Loan Nguyen appears in her own photographs herself; however, it is not the performative act that is the central statement of the image but rather that this is always bound to a selected place. When Loan Nguyen goes somewhere, her being remains in sensitive restraint, she does not want to fundamentally change the empty, often functionless place but approach it meditatively with gestures and poses.
The artist expresses it as follows: “My work is not fixed on the person. For me, objects, landscapes and people have the same status in the order of nature. I am interested in the stance and gestures of the objects and of nature, not only of the person.”
