Mar 5 - Apr 25, 2009
Tran's newest series of work was completed during winter residencies in the frigid northeast. During her time away from home she ruminated about the meaning of comfort and warmth. These thoughts led her to encase her ongoing series of tree paintings in a vibrant winter wardrobe. Tran drew from sources such as the knitted tree cozies of Knitta, the painted branches of Salvation Mountain and the work of Friedensreich Hundertwasser.
