Center for Hmong Arts and Talent (CHAT) is proud to present the “NO WORD FOR ART” Master’s Gallery, featuring:
Dinah Her
Tou Lee
Tou Yia Xiong
Galea Vajxyoo
Nikki Yang
These talented artists were selected in the juried visual art gallery at CHAT’s 8th Annual Hmong Arts and Music Festival in August 2009.
There is no Hmong word for art. Although the truth of this statement is startling and can trigger a stream of questions and assumptions about the culture, the reality is that there is a rich tradition of art weaved into the daily lives of the people.
With or without the word, this exhibit speaks in the universal language of art to celebrate the artistic soul of the Hmong community.
