Tran Nguyen’s “Remedy” at Thinkspace Projects.

Opening on Saturday, July 17th, 2021 at Thinkspace Projects in Los Angeles, California is artist Tran Nguyen’s gorgeous solo exhibition, “Remedy.”

“Remedy” is a collection of work focusing on the complicated relationship between humans and nature. With striking paintings and illustrations that create a balance between the soft and beautiful and the borderline haunting, ‘Remedy’ creates a utopian world where a small human population and a variety of flora and fauna coexist in a symbiotic relationship, giving way to magical species and fantastical visuals.

“‘Remedy’,” Tran explains, “showcases the outcome when inhabitants adapt, converge, and ultimately evolve, with the environment of this enigmatic land. This process gives way to magical species that are amalgamations with human and floral-like characteristics. It births bird-like women, hatches pink-haired creatures, and breathes life to horned beings. These evolutionary changes blur the line between nature and its inhabitants, making distinction from one another difficult.”
