Tuan Tran - background and whats NEW ! (updated February 1, 2011)
Life is
colorful. I am colorful. Art reflects life. My art reflects me. Color's as reflected in thread, wire, paper are my pallet. The colors
and textures of thread and wire appear in many of my works. Thread is a small
rope of color. Many different elements are used in composing my pieces
The recycled wire, reflects my affinity to the colors of life, and the reuse of discarded materials. Life cannot be taken too
seriously. Fun, enjoyment and thought are what I hope to bring in each of my
pieces. The subject matter, materials and theme of each of my pieces vary significantly; reflecting
life, reflecting belief, reflecting me.
Creating
Art for over 25 years, a credentialed Ikebana teacher performing
demonstrations, exhibits and workshops around the world, I live in San Francisco. Creating Art from recycled materials
is exciting, while focusing on the individual beauty and significance of
the elements and the subject. See me also on FACEBOOK: tuantsf@yahoo.com (and for the links displayed below you must " cut and paste " them, they are not "hot links".
WireWear Couture embodies all of my philosophy of recycling, bringing color and INNOVATION all from humble strands of wire.
