Dinh Q. Lê (1968-2024) was a Vietnamese American multimedia artist, best known for his photography work and photo-weaving technique.

Growing up in Vietnam near the Cambodia border, Lê had traumatic memories of the Khmer Rouge Invasion. He and his family fled Vietnam in 1978 by boat, first spending a year in Thailand, then moving to the United States.

Many of his works consider the Vietnam War, known as the American War in his native country, as well as methods of memory and how it connects to the present. (Source: Wikipedia)
