Conceptual artist and poet Trần Quang Đại from Vietnam is generously giving us the sale proceeds from his new book of poems, ‘I Let You Win’. Donations can be made via his JustGiving link here.

Members of the public are warmly welcomed to attend the book launch at London’s Museum of the Home, 136 Kingsland Rd, London E2 8EA, on 6 October at 2-4pm (no tickets required).

The book is a year-long collection of tender, solitary and collective moments exploring care, vulnerability, memory and the ways we live with one another. Through sparse language, repetition and blankness, the book considers the small negotiations of everyday relationships: when we hold on, when we yield, and what it means to make space for another.

For its launch, the publication extends beyond the page into a site-responsive installation at the museum, placing the intimacy of the book within a space where private lives, domestic histories and personal memories are collected and encountered.

Đại is a conceptual artist and poet who has trained in Contemporary Art Practice at the Royal College of Art, London. His work brings together traditional media and socially reflective methods to navigate the silent spaces between ethics, belonging and the unseen architectures of power.

Rooted in experiences of post-war Việt Nam and informed by post-internet thinking, his practice engages with questions of memory, identity and resilience, inviting reflection on the convergences of the self and the social.
