The Piece

A figure in a blue denim jacket stands with his back turned, a white star centered between the shoulder blades. We never see the face, and we do not need to. The back becomes the portrait, the jacket the statement. There is a quiet confidence in what the composition chooses not to reveal. The deep blue is rich and enveloping, the star bold and clean against it. Cedric titled the work after the musician Duckwrth, and the energy of that world, creative, collaborative, unapologetically itself, runs through every thread. Loose, graphic, and full of quiet swagger.

About

The Artist

Cedric Vu (b. 1996) is a French-Vietnamese contemporary visual artist born and raised in San Jose, California. From 2014 to 2023, he lived in Los Angeles, where he studied filmmaking, worked as a dancer, and held a range of production roles in film and television.

In 2024, Vu returned to his hometown to establish a physical art practice rooted in creative authorship and independence. Teaching himself to tuft yarn, he began creating textile works - often self-portraits - using his own image out of practicality as he developed his technique in the medium. Though textiles have become the foundation of his emerging body of work, Vu continues to expand his practice with the intention of working across multiple mediums.

Since establishing his studio practice, Vu has exhibited at the Triton Museum of Art in Santa Clara, where he also serves as an Art Preparator. His work will be featured in the forthcoming 2027 group exhibition Echoes of Being at the Bakersfield Museum of Art. Vu’s work has quickly captured the attention of collectors and admirers alike, including renowned stylist and image architect Law Roach, known for his collaborations with Zendaya, Céline Dion, and others.
