VANGHOUA ANTHONY VUE

Australia

Vue’s eclectic practice recontextualises his Hmong heritage within his Australian upbringing and experiences. Focusing on Hmong history and traditions, Vue takes an abstract and autobiographical approach to his reinterpretation and reinvention through an array of materials, influences and processes. Among Vue’s practice are investigations of ‘The Other’ and their representation within nation-states, postmemory as mediated through faded visual forms and oral history, and the reinvention of cultural traditions to explore their continuing relevance and potential to be transformed and diversified into new cultural contexts.
