A petite vase in conventional shape. The work is one of the products from Mo Thanh's experiment with glazing.
Mo Thanh is a pseudonym used by artist Do Phan's father in his artistic career. He was renowned for his works in traditional Chinese style, depicting images of Buddhist monks, running horses, and mountainous landscapes on scrolls. The artist also specialised in producing ceramics and writing Chinese and ‘tu nom’ (old Vietnamese hieroglyphic script) calligraphy. The ceramics and calligraphic works were displayed and collected by Salon Natasha.
Salon Natasha as an alternative art space had been a well-known exhibition space for artists of different generations in Hanoi. During the early years of its establishment (1990-1993), artists who exhibited at the Salon were mostly close friends with Vu Dan Tan.
Back in the early 1990s, artists that actively engaged in the Salon include Bui Thanh Phuong, Do Phan and his father Mo Thanh (a pseudonym), Nguyen Dinh Dung, Tran Thieu Quang, Bui Viet Dung, Ngo Dinh Chuong, Ngo Manh Quynh, Mai Chi Thanh, and Eric Leroux.
