High-resolution, downloadable digital art prints inspired by the pages of Bright Water will be created and uploaded over time. Feel free to print both the book and the upcoming prints for your personal, non-commercial use. However, if you'd like a quick and convenient way to get a physical copy to hold, you can get one from Amazon. I don't know how well photos of 3D artwork will show on a Kindle Direct Publishing book, but I'll be sure to post an update when I get my copies!
Bright Water
An art book in which artworks come together to narrate their own stories.
What does Bright Water mean?
Bright Water is a visual storytelling project where artworks serve as backgrounds, characters, and objects. Bright Water is also an artwork in itself, exploring scale and staging through the mediums of print and photography to tell cryptic, open-ended narratives across three off-the-canvas bodies of work: Cinderella Far East, Virgin Mermaid, and QUAI THAI. Yet to me, Bright Water is the journey of a mermaid defying currents and streams, only to discover she was not born of the ocean but from the craters of mountains and sky. Among my art, I remember: Bright Water is my salvaged stream of consciousness, the river of thoughts within me, and the meaning of my name, Hà Minh.
