In Liminal, artist Dacchi Dang explores the binaries and dualities of the East and West. His evocative new body of photographic work -emanates from an artist’s residency at the Cite Internationale des Arts in Paris, and compares the landscape, society and architecture of France and Vietnam. Liminal explores notions of disparity between Eastern traditions of representation and those of the West, it celebrates the similarities and relationships between the two cultural landscapes, with the added layer of Dacchi’s Australian identity.
This project has been assisted by the Commonwealth Government through the Australia Council, its arts funding and advisory body, L&P photographic Ltd., and Fujifilm Australia Pty. Ltd.
Dacchi Dang was born and raised in Saigon and came to Australia as a teenager in 1983.
