This piece, a water buffalo, was originally made upon returning from a trip to Vietnam in 2001, as a response to learning that history has a way of distorting the truth to suit a specific audience. That Vietnam was such a peaceful place, inhabited by humanity’s kindest, was a stark contrast to what the artist had learned in books and documentaries.
