Dinh said the impressionist-style painting
is inspired by rows of bamboos, boats, and rivers which are emblematic of the
Vietnamese countryside. Apart from it predominantly green colour, it is also
dotted with yellow, brown, orange, and red lines.
Overcoming nearly 1,000 entries worldwide, "Melody of Bamboo” has touched the
heart of painting lovers worldwide and received one of the prestigious 90
prizes.
Experts said that they could feel the various dimensions of space, sound, and
motion captured in the painting. The piece is due to be displayed at a
exhibition of Somsak Chaituch, a Dutch painter of Thai descent, at the Vietnam
Fine Arts Museum on October 28.
