DAN TRAN
Dan Tran (b.1985) is a multimedia artist who works across origami, drawing, painting, and ink. Dan is known by his family and community for his resilience of spirit, which is reflected in the joyful, color-rich way he captures often heavy and complex subject matter.
Through his paintings, Dan interweaves his passions for cooking, historical events, popular culture, and politics to form a body of work that celebrates global culture and brings awareness to social injustice. References to Vietnam are often woven throughout Dan’s work through an ongoing exploration of personal identity and homage to his culture of origin. Dan’s most recent collection reflects his concerns about the war in Ukraine. This well-researched body of work elevates Ukrainian culture, by uplifting cultural icons, honoring everyday citizens, and capturing objects and places of significance.
