Presenting a piece from a limited collection by artist Hà Minh Tuân, whose work delves into modern-day Buddhist culture. This sculpture features the iconic seated Buddha, hands in the traditional Dhyana Mudra, symbolizing meditation. Against the deep blue backdrop of the Buddha's body and robes, a golden Lotus radiates, adding a striking contrast. Infused with elements of abstraction and cubism, this sculpture exudes a contemporary flair. Additionally, the subtle incorporation of traditional flower patterns along the robe pays homage to Vietnamese artistic heritage.
