Bright Quang is an interesting and inspiring man. Idiosyncratic and personal, his painting describes his response to his life and share with us a long, solitary view acquired in the midst of tragic world events of the past thirty years -war, displacement, and struggle. Bright's reply to all this is, rather than despair, hope. Bright's work, and his character, celebrates what it means to be alive in difficult times.
