Christian Dinh
American
(St. Petersburg, FL, 1992 – )
Christian Dinh is a Vietnamese-American ceramic artist from Orlando, Florida. Currently,
Dinh attended the MFA program at Tulane University and graduated in 2022. He received
his BA in 2017 from the University of West Florida in Pensacola, Florida. While studying at
UWF, Christian Dinh was nominated for the International Sculpture Center’s Outstanding
Student Achievement in Contemporary Sculpture Award. Dinh’s ceramic and sculptural work
has been in numerous exhibitions throughout the Gulf Coast, including the exhibition PHILIC
/ PHOBIC at the Pensacola Museum of Art and And Now For Something New Vol. 2 at LeMieux
Gallery in New Orleans, Louisiana. Christian Dinh’s most recent series Nail Salon redirects
stigma and celebrates Vietnamese-American identity by confronting racism, stereotypes and
underrepresentation. The work focuses on the Vietnamese culture that developed in the
United States after the Vietnam War and the flourishing Vietnamese community established
by refugees and immigrants throughout the country. Christian Dinh’s Nail Salon will be
exhibited as part of the Ogden Museum of Southern Art’s Focus Series in June 2021 in New
Orleans, Louisiana.
