Liubov Fedotova, the wife of the Ukrainian Ambassador to Vietnam, is displaying her Vietnamese-inspired lacquer paintings at an exhibition in Ho Chi Minh City.

Using traditional materials such as silver, bronze and nacre, the artist is exceptional at depicting the traditional images of Vietnam and the Ukraine through remarkable pieces such as “Blonde angel” (2006), “Dialogue between the two cultures” (2007) and “St. Michaels’s church in Kyriv, Ukraine” (2008).
