Write As Beasts Scream at Night

Thu-Van Tran (* 1979 in Ho Chi Minh City) lives and works in Paris. Her impressive oeuvre draws connections between the political entanglements of nations and colonial legacies – traces of which remain inscribed and visible in many places, in language, bodies, and landscapes. At the KINDL, the artist presents her most recent works – some made specifically for this exhibition – which address the ecological and traumatic consequences of colonialism in Vietnam and Australia, and their resonances in Europe. Working across a range of media – including ceramics, painting, and drawing – she continues her reflection on these conflict-scarred lands and the memory inscribed within them. _Write As Beasts Scream at Night_ invokes the mystical forces of nature that quietly but persistently rebel against the wounds inflicted by human hands.
