This painting combines glimpses of the past, present, and future that forms our Vietnamese-American experiences. In the black and white background, depicted are selected scenes of our history: of leaving Vietnam on boats, of the family and friends left behind, and of our allies in the war. In the colorful foreground, a parade is depicted that celebrates our Vietnamese traditions on new soil in our adopted homeland of America. A young child observes the festivities, carried on his father’s shoulders, representing the lineage of our Vietnamese traditions being shared with the next generation. It is on the shoulders of our parents and grandparents---their stories and their experiences---that our Vietnamese traditions and histories will be kept alive and help inform our lives as Vietnamese-Americans going forward into the future. –Thuan Vu, artist b. 1973 Saigon, Vietnam Professor of Art, Southern Connecticut State University
