FIT Senior Project: 2009

The cultural and historical study of Vietnam. Having been in the US for about a good 20 years, my history on my native country has become a bit rusty. So why not refresh myself as well as educate others on the many fascinating aspects of Vietnam. Through much research and a newfound appreciation, the final product is one of pride and from the heart.

In brief, I translated the history, people, and my personal connection to Vietnam into narrative prints and fabrics where people can enjoy as well as learn something from it.
