The Words of the Wind is not simply a whispering conversation through each of the sculptor's brainchildren in the midst of a life full of turmoil, hustle and bustle, but also brings to the viewer the feelings of the quiet contemplation that the author wants to convey through each image. The works in the exhibition show a distinct sound, calm but resonant, quiet but full of inspiration, reminding of the pure, innocent beauty, the beauty of the soul, wisdom and deep feelings.

What makes the mark of sculptor Nguyen Hoang Anh is not in form or scale, but in the romantic, liberal, concise spirit, sometimes witty but always containing deep thoughts and humanistic views. In each block, viewers can catch the gentle breath of nature, at the same time feel the sharp view and deep contemplation of the artist on life, people and contemporary social issues.

The exhibition Words of the Wind runs until August 17.
