Tùng Mai Trúc Cúc

This illustration series reimagines the traditional Eastern symbolism of the Four Gentlemen — Tùng (Pine), Mai (Plum Blossom), Trúc (Bamboo), and Cúc (Chrysanthemum) — through a contemporary Vietnamese lens. Each figure embodies not only the natural beauty of its plant but also the virtues it represents: resilience, purity, integrity, and grace.
