Collective Canvas – Drawing with machine

05 November 2022
EMASI Nam Long

Workshop with artist UuDam Tran Nguyen

Have you ever considered picking up a brush to paint, but then gave up because you didn’t know where to start? Did you know we can now use machines (and not just our hands) to create artworks? In this fast-paced world, how closely-intertwined with human life do you think machines and technologies are becoming? Will machines (digital tools, and even AI) help expand the boundaries of contemporary art?

To answer these questions, the students of EMASI Nam Long were invited to join the workshop with artist UuDam Tran Nguyen, where he talked about his work License2Draw – L2D (a “robotic hand” that can draw!) and followed by a “collective drawing” session with other participants using the L2D app.

This event is part of a series of public and education programs in association with Illuminated Curiosities, an exhibition organized by Nguyen Art Foundation.
