ABOUT

Vin an Asian American artist whose work explores growth, transformation, and the tension between structure and instinct. His process is deeply intuitive—colors and forms emerge organically, creating textured, tangible surfaces that invite the viewer to not just see, but feel. Influenced by personal history, introspection, and a lifelong fascination with sensory experiences, Vin’s paintings capture moments of quiet evolution.  

In his work, Vin explores the tension between what is seen and what is buried—between memory and erasure. Each painting begins with a subject drawn from personal recollection: a flower, a mushroom, a childhood object. These figures are rendered instinctively, sometimes distorted by the haze of time, then partially obscured by a structure that overlays the surface like a second skin. The original image is never fully visible again once that layer is added. That moment is irreversible, and for Vin, deeply cathartic.

Visually, the structure creates a sense of order—repetitive but irregular, almost like a system trying to make sense of something messy underneath. It isn’t just a pattern; it’s a barrier, a filter, a language that interrupts. It holds things in place while letting parts slip through. There’s a tension between the softness of what’s buried and the sharpness of what’s imposed on top.

The colors—bold, often complementary, and slightly off—create friction. They’re not meant to soothe. They’re meant to hold your attention in that uncertain space between beauty and disruption. These paintings are, in a way, acts of transformation. What’s left is a visual record of that process—of covering, revealing, and letting go.
