 rated by 1Projects\nYa was discovered by Vietnam-based artist Richard 
 Streitmatter-Tran who introduced her to 1PROJECTS. Ya’s work reminds
  us of photography of Ren Hang, the provocative Chinese photographer w
 ho recently passed away at the age of 29. While Ren Hang’s photograp
 hy resembles works by Goldin, Mapplethorpe, and Clarke. Ren Hang’s w
 orks have been called tempestuous as they communicated a unique and ra
 w, stark aesthetic that appeared to border on taboos in a break with t
 he conventional. With the help of unashamed models an aesthetic access
 ories, Ren Hang led viewers into sophisticated surrealism. Ya’s work
  as well, her models posed in awkward, but erotic positions, usually w
 ith no clothes on, tests the viewers comfort zones and tests our limit
 s to experience. The most unique characteristic of her works is the ab
 stract way in which she depitcs the human body of her friends or herse
 lf.Provocative at first the images stoke uncertainty in the viewer of 
 what the image aims to convey. People in her photos are contorted and 
 in uncomfortable positions. Strangeness intrigues her. Faces are often
  obscured although in mundane and ordinary settings. Nudity and loneli
 ness make her models appear vulnerable. The Vietnamese female artist a
 ccepts her body as it is which reminds her of everything she has exper
 ienced. She focuses on each scar and bruise as not physical experience
  but as memory. Ya is interested in the sensitivity and vulnerability 
 of human beings and their how easily they get hurt. It is life’s fra
 gility that the artist tries to capture, something she strongly believ
 es is nothing to be afraid of. She wants to capture feelings, and in t
 he process, learn how to accept them as a part of our body. The artist
  also finds inspiration in her surroundings from the water readers on 
 their lunch break that rekindle her spirit for pursuing her passion fo
 r photography. Ya always strives to surpass the limitations of shootin
 g on film but at the same time enjoys being tied down by them. Ya crea
 tes some of the most striking and distinctive images we’ve seen. Her
  highly-stylised and skewed, work is at the forefront of new and more 
 artistic trend not onlybut notably also in Vietnamese photography. The
  figures in her work are oddly contorted; weirdly sculpted in strange 
 ways. The faces are often obscured or hidden. Interestingly, Yatender 
 puts her subjects in everyday surrounds, only magnifying the peculiari
 ty of the positioning. It makes for intriguing viewing and you can’t
  help but wonder what the story behind each person/image is.\n\nFor mo
