Process Statement
Trinh uses photography to capture unexpected and spontaneous moments in daily life and to express his personal ideas. He is perplexed by the perception of artists as coffee-drinking loafers who work whenever they feel like it. He doesn't even drink coffee. His most recent exhibition Just Heaps Surprised To Be Alive was about a way of looking at the world to see the amazing in the mundane, to find magic in the everyday. He is never bored.
