Graduated from the Ho Chi Minh City University of Architecture in 2013 and is currently a practicing artist living and working in Da Nang. Since 2015, Mifa has focused on researching and experimenting with acrylic paint on traditional Vietnamese scallop paper, producing numerous artworks that explore the harmony and conflicts of Eastern identity in the age of globalization, alongside a desire to preserve and develop folk spirit through the medium of painting. Through artistic practice, she studies and seeks to reproduce painting techniques from ancient Eastern civilizations such as cave painting, patterns, book decoration, gold leaf, calligraphy, watercolor, hand printing, paper collage… combining them with personal techniques inspired by Vietnamese lacquer painting materials.
