IMAGES IN LACQUER PAINTING OF NGỌC THỌ – HIDDEN MESSAGES

Standing in front of a work of art, the first emotion is brought by the visual; then, the viewer will calm down, allowing themselves to read, to understand the ideas and messages that the artist wants to convey in the work through the details from the shape to the color.

With Ngọc Thọ’s lacquer works, the viewer seems to be brought into his own world of philosophy. Geometric symbols, spiral patterns, sinusoidal rhythms, the sun and the moon, the five elements, yin and yang, square and round, white dots are repeated, making the viewer have to concentrate quietly to find, to understand, to decode.

With a small, gentle figure, a simple demeanor, deep inside Ngọc Thọ is a strong inner force in the artistic consciousness. His paintings are complex, a rich inner feeling, full of knowledge, a deep understanding of Eastern culture.

This video by Viet Art View is like a preface introducing the broad creative content of Ngọc Thọ’s artistic worldview.

We respectfully introduce.
