Sophie-Yen Bretez
In Sophie-Yen Bretez (b. 1994, Vietnam)'s works, she uses different temperatures of color tones and creates coexistence of harmonious contradictions of surrealist composition and aesthetic beauty. As a French-Vietnamese living in France, she deals with themes of the exploration of identity and the complexity of human emotions. The female figure staring off the screen sends an enterprising and vast message.
