The Weight of Rain
Mixed media on canvas, 30 x 40 in, $4,600.00
Channeling subjects such as dream imagery, imagined landscapes, geodes, outer space, and The Big Bang, Tran explores the shapes of nature, with the infusion of fantastical, pulsing synthetic hues. The psychedelic visuals are harvested from the place where inner-verse meets outer-verse, where optical misfires combine with a vacuum pull moving at the speed of light. Through painting, sculpture, and installation, she creates atmospheres that aim to activate.
Tran’s work is included in private and public collections across the country and internationally, including Vulcan Inc., Baer Art Center in Iceland, Camac Art Centre in France, The El Paso Children’s Hospital, Harborview Medical Center, The King County Public Art Collection and The Child Center, among others. She has completed multiple special projects and installations, including work for VH1Save the Music Foundation, The Upstream Music Fest, The Seattle Art Museum, The Brain Project Toronto, and Public Art at The Aqua Art Fair Miami. She has been awarded multiple fellowships, grants, and residencies nationally and internationally. Tran lives and works in Seattle.
