THE FOUR SEASONS

A Contemporary Textile Art Quartet

ART IN PROGRESS

LIVE TEXTILE ART
PERFORMANCE

A creation brought to life day by day through the brushstrokes and hand-stitches of Saigonmuse artists and artisans.

Traditionally, Vietnamese homes often featured artworks in sets of four, inspired by the seasons and represented through flowers, plants, animals and auspicious symbols. Known as Tứ Bình and Tứ Quý, these compositions brought nature, time and symbolism into Vietnamese living spaces.

THE FOUR SEASONS reimagines this tradition through a contemporary lens. Each season is embodied by a marine creature vital to the coral reef ecosystem, bringing Vietnamese artistic heritage into conversation with the natural world today.

Through live textile art performances, Saigonmuse brings the time-honoured art of hand embroidery closer to the public, inviting audiences to witness each artwork come to life, stitch by stitch.

Initiated in 2024, THE FOUR SEASONS continues to travel through live performances and exhibitions, inviting audiences along its creative journey until the quartet is complete.

THE FOUR SEASONS is an art project developed by GIVE Sustainable Organization. All proceeds from the artworks support GIVE’s community projects.

“In a world of fast fashion, we choose the path of very-slow-fashion – where natural fabrics and hand embroidery are crafted slowly into wearable art.”
