Hi, I'm Tri Vang!
Hi, my name is Tri and I am a newly added co-owner of The Eclectic. I am excited to join this wonderful team and showcase my skills as an artist to the community.
I am a self-taught artist of 10 years and an aspiring tattoo artist. My art style is strongly influenced by anime and many other Asian artists. I create semi-realist art and work with cooler and softer watercolor as my medium. My art revolves around creating a deep connection with healing from trauma to self-love. Most of my work has been done for family and The Eclectic, but I am hoping to create more traditional and body art that tells a story that is uniquely yours.
Outside of The Eclectic, I am just a simple boba addict and am very family oriented. I spend most of my days with my family by hiking, going on gas station trips, vacations, and just simple hangouts. I also love spending time with all the pets that are in my life, especially with my fur baby, MovMov. When I’m not spending time with family, I take naps, read fantasy historical books, and of course, I am always learning about art and art sustainability so that I can take the steps to becoming a sustainable artist.
Fun Facts About Me
- I used to play the cello in high school and middle school.
- I have a siamese cat name MovMov who is FIV+.
- I'm a boba addict
My Most recent Work
HEALING MEADOWS: THE BROKEN BEAUTY
This art project was created to spread awareness and to recognize the generational family trauma and abuse that womxn within Southeast Asian families endure. To compliment this artwork, I documented the stories of several Southeast Asian womxn to share with the community.
I titled this artwork Healing Meadows: The Broken Beauty to highlight the pain, sorrow, and trauma that womxn face from generational trauma, but have chosen to heal. It is to recognize that the path to heal from generational trauma is an ongoing journey of self-love and self-sacrifice. The flowers within the artwork are the national flowers from all parts of Southeast Asia. I wanted the flowers to represent the growth and the beauty of growing, healing, and choosing to love oneself in the face of being casted out from one's own family or community.
This artwork installation was displayed at the Springboard for the Arts in early September 2025 as part of the SEA Change Lab Program. I was chosen as one of their artist cohorts for the 2025 season which has allowed me to grow as an artist. I am thankful to the SEA Change Lab for giving me this opportunity.
