They are painted in a way to capture their relationship to the world around them . These subjects are familiar in the life of the painter .

The objects appear in a kind of multi-layered perspective . Their representation is simple , almost rough . They have a sense of immediacy , directness and power . Art is for Dang Xuan Hoa , simplicity in form and substance .
As a young artist , he painted a wide varietyof still-life pieces , only gradually moving on to a figuration that has come to dominate his art . For Dang Xuan Hoa , still life offered him the opportunity to experiment , and his later portraits he has used elements and many motifs such as vases , flowers , bowls and cats , of his still life to enhance many of his best portraits and self portraits .
