Lap Phuong
Lap Phuong (b. 1989, Vietnam) is a contemporary sculptor most known for her minimalist works. Using primarily metal and glass, reshaping materials in an exploration of the passion and tension that imbue human life, Lap Phuong often works with themes of freedom, identity and sexuality. She studied Monumental Sculpture at the Architecture University of Hanoi. In 2015 she exhibited at the International Sculpture Art Base Camp at the Vietnam Fine Arts Museum in Ho Chi Minh City, and in 2017, at the Kohler Bold Art exhibition in Hanoi.
