Thu-Van Tran (* 1979 in Ho Chi Minh City) lives and works in Paris. Her work draws connections between the political entanglements of nations and colonial legacies, traces of which remain inscribed and visible in many places: in language, bodies, and landscapes. At the KINDL, the artist presents her most recent works, some created specifically for this exhibition – including ceramics, painting, and drawing – which address the ecological and traumatic consequences of colonialism in Vietnam and Australia, and their resonances in Europe. Write As Beasts Scream at Night invokes the forces of resistance in nature, which quietly but persistently rebel against the wounds inflicted by human hands.
