Drawing by Vu Thi Nhusha

A 'brush-stroke drawing' by Vu Thi Nhusha, daughter of Vu Dan Tan and Natasha Kraevskaia. During her childhood in the early 1990s, Vu Thi Nhusha produced a series of brush-stroke drawings under her father's guidance at his workshop.

Vu Thi Nhusha (b.1991), Vu Dan Tan and Natasha Kraevskaia's daughter, from a very early age expressed her will to participate in her father’s workshop after observing other children’s works. At two she had already attempted to emulate Vu Dan Tan’s artistic styles. Nhusha produced numerous drawings using bright colours and sharp compositions, which were distantly reminiscent to Tan’s abstract works from this period.

Apart from producing his own arts, Vu Dan Tan devoted his time in art education as well, sharing his artistic skills with the younger generation. In the early 1990s, he organised workshops in Salon Natasha for children, teaching them to paint, to make masks, and to communicate through drawings. Children who participated in the workshop were mostly relatives or neighbours of Tan.
