Vu Dinh Son
Vu Dinh Son was born in 1970 in Tien Giang, Mekong Delta, the south of Vietnam and graduated from the HCMC Fine Arts University in 1998.
Having spent a large part of his childhood in the Mekong Delta area, Son chooses to express his artwork through the lenses of simplicity and childhood memories. He adores the countryside lifestyle around the Mekong River and shares these emotions with his audience through subjects of family, nature and the interaction between the two in most, if not all of his paintings.
Son is an expressionist artist who prides himself with high standards of craftsmanship and creativity. He has
participated widely in both solo and group exhibitions in Vietnam, USA, Canada, Japan and Hong Kong,
and continues to explore opportunities to share his artworks with the rest of the world.
