ABOUT THE ARTWORK
Nearly 200 small clouds of the Cloud of Holiness floated over the wall, fluffy and radiating a beautiful shade of blue – the peaceful blue of Asian porcelain, and the ceramic mosaics of Arabic temple architecture. However, when we look closely, we realize that that soft white cluster is not a cloud, but actually a giant mass of dust and smoke exploding. Nguyen Phuong Linh collected images from bomb explosions, initially during the Vietnam War, then gradually expanded to later conflict areas such as the Middle East. That expansion process seems to be a logical process in a progressive timeline, but it is also extremely cruel when it shows that armed actions are repeated over and over again, never ending in human history.
