V TRAN

I’m V, a 19 year old artist from Aurora, IL 
currently living in Chicago, IL.
I am a multidisciplinary artist primarily focused on writing, sculpture, music performance, and metal smithing/jewelry making. 
I use my art as a form of storytelling, my themes are rooted from own life experience and nostalgia. I am heavily inspired from the skate scene, gutter punks, street art, and rave culture. For every evolution of myself, these were a small communities that I felt comfortable expressing myself in. These spaces and the people within them challenged the way I thought to further change my perspective on what the world is and how I should experience it. I try my best to reflect these lessons into the art that I create.
