Nguyen Tien was born in 1990 in Nam Dinh . He had a passion for painting from an early age. When he was a child, lacking money to buy crayons and watercolors, he would often go to the beach to collect colored pebbles, grind them into a fine powder, and use them as paint. Not only that, he also frequently painted on the sand at the beach to satisfy his passion.

Upon reaching adulthood and becoming a student at the Ho Chi Minh City University of Architecture, Nguyen Tien simultaneously attended school and helped out at his family's advertising painting shop. In addition, he and his classmates formed a group to paint murals, spray paint, and create artwork on car bodies, helmets, laptops, etc., to earn extra income.

By 2010, the male artist began to discover a strong passion for sand painting. Not only did he perform this art form at events as a profession, but the artist from Nam Dinh also explored and used various materials and painting techniques to diversify his performances.

Throughout his career, he has created many unique works using 12 different forms and materials. The artist, born in 1990, stated: "A performance artist needs creative skills, a constant pursuit of new ideas and experiments, the ability to transform thoughts into actions and create tangible products, and the ability to perform to music to create a captivating show."

Artist Nguyen Tien says his artistic inspiration comes from everything in everyday life. Whenever he has free time, he often goes to paint for charity at monasteries or kindergartens. According to him, beauty is needed everywhere, by everyone.

"I hope that sand painting, as well as performance painting, will develop and bring cultural values, showcasing the image of Vietnamese people and national identity to the world ," Nguyen Tien said.
