My Linh Mac is a Saigonsese multi-media artist, visual designer, and art educator based in Fort Collins, Colorado. Mac is best known for her digital paintings, traditional oil paintings, and her series of contemporary ‘galactic /no-brush’ paintings- Ranbu. As an accomplished painter, her works portray beauty in humble places with her signature style of deep and vibrant accent colors. Mac discovered nontraditional techniques bring further variety to her paintings through the use of color and medium manipulation and exploring different possibilities with hybrid-like presentation platforms. What makes her work stand out among young emerging artists is how she incorporates not only technical skills and knowledge from multiple creative fields of design, art, and technologies; but also, her personal experience and cultural exposure from different parts of the world as a traveler.
Mac's works have been displayed at art exhibitions and showcases around the world. She demonstrates an exceptional talent for creating depth and dimension in her iconic series ‘Ranbu’ (2019) and ‘Constellation’ (2022), incorporating traditional painting techniques and unconventional design elements to produce a unique visual language. Her abstract works are represented by institutions worldwide including the Queen Victoria Museum and Gallery in Tasmania, Australia, the Angard Art Hotel in St. Louis, Missouri, the Brauer Museum in Valparaiso, the Czong Institute for Contemporary Art (CICA) Museum in Gimpo, South Korea, and the Museum of Outstanding Design (MOOD) in Como, Italy.
Mac's work reflects my quirky approach to colors, blending the structures, principles, and utility of design with the rawness, chaos, and freedom of fine art. In my multidisciplinary works, She discovered her artistic niche by manipulating materials and presentation platforms to create art in one medium that looks to have been created in another.
