VOLUME : Mr.Bambii Solo Exhibition

 

 

RIVER ART GALLERY is going to present the first solo exhibition "VOLUME" by Chinese-Vietnamese artist Mr.Bambii. Within the gentle touch, a journey of the soul unfolds. The exhibition gathers the artist's classic wax sculpture series, reflecting the stages of his artistic career. Mr.Bambii, initially as a poet, but later used written words as a medium for performing arts. He frequently collaborates with artists from different fields such as vocalists, musicians, contemporary dancers, creating highly interactive performances. These shows subtly explore the relationship between the symbolism of poetry and the undercurrents in human-nature connections, capturing perspectives through the gaze of different species.

 

 

 

The exhibited works primarily depict the rich emotional imagery of poetry through sculpture, evoking and provoking deep contemplation in a sensitive and perceptive manner. By delicately blending the primary medium of wax and clay, a poem is ideally preserved and passed down through generations, visually embodying the landscapes within poetry. For him, the process of wax melting to solidification transcends physical-chemical phenomena; it symbolizes a life journey involving self-deconstruction, encounters, growth, recombination, and inclusivity, enhancing both the softness of flexibility and the strength of rigidity—a wisdom bestowed by nature. Each life's development is uniquely profound, much like inherent artistic instinct and sexual orientation that cannot be deprived.

 

 

The title "VOLUME" holds various interpretations, including the familiar "volume" in daily life, as well as the meanings of "book" or "collection." Specifically, it implies "a defined storage space with capacity," aligning perfectly with the appearance of the artist's works, the use of text as carrier elements, and the inherent warmth of each piece. The exhibition embarks from the poetry series at the beginning, where the essence of poetry intertwines with his life philosophy in wax, resembling books waiting to be explored, containing endless life philosophies. Mr.Bambii's delicate emotions are fully expressed in each piece, establishing profound connections with viewers, conveying how to face life appropriately with gentleness and the various possibilities that arise from treating things with care. His wax sculptures not only blend interactions with nature and poetic life realizations but also authentically present the artist's distinctive self, embodying the philosophy of the unity of self and the world.

 

Finally, through the colorless yet colorful manner, the depth of objects is magnified, akin to bringing the tranquility of the forest or the gentle touch of sunlight through the foliage to the skin, softly yet resolutely inviting viewers into a beautiful daydream, opening windows to eternal joy. Whether the story is being told or has already been completed, symbolic short stories, unique to each individual, are about to be presented to those visiting the exhibition, immersing them in the gentle enchantment woven by time, encountering their true selves.
