Born in Paris in 1972, he is a self-taught artist with instinctive style. As an unconventional personality, his works are just as much. Working with charcoal, gouache felt, oil or even pen, each of his paintings appears as a combat, a hand-to-hand confrontation with matter from which arises a will: to reveal the deepest of the human being through the lines and color.
Most of Hom’s work revolves around the creation of monumental portraits. The choice of colors, the application of the material or the vivacity of the gesture are always done in order to show to the world his vision of the human being beyond appearances. His works capture and transcend the depth of feelings and the complexity of the emotions that overwhelm the human soul.

At Anantara Golden Triangle, located in one of the country’s most renowned elephant sanctuaries, the theme evolves. There, Hom Nguyen turns his gaze toward the elephants themselves—emblems of memory, protection, and spiritual wisdom. Moved by their strength and fragility, he paints them with reverence and intimacy. In their eyes, too, lies a story: of endurance, of coexistence, and of the sacred bond between human and animal.
