For her solo show at Co-Prosperity titled Parallel to Hell, LE Hien Minh (ACC 2022) exhibits her newest body of work comprising two sculptures and a large hand-painted, site-specific text-based work. This body of work takes a critical look at how American pop culture has impacted Vietnamese female identity. Drawing from a wide range of influences, including Hollywood films, American pop music, Vietnam War iconography, and traditional Vietnamese motifs, she weaves these elements together to create powerful objects that radiate an otherworldly aura. Le Hien Minh approaches this new work through a surrealist and metaphysical lens, blending fantasy and nightmare to create artwork that is both alluring and unsettling.
Co-Prosperity is an experimental cultural center located in Bridgeport, Chicago that hosts exhibitions, screenings, installations, gatherings, and performance programs.
