Behind the superficial appearance
may just lie hidden some deep truth. On the other side of visual images
one may just find verbal words.
This
landscape is as a meeting point of the image and the words, of the artificial
and the intimacy, the false and truth, the memory and the reality, the
impossible and the possible…
This
work pays homage to my father, dissident poet: The viewers are invited to open
those plastic flowers, they will find on their petals a diary of my father, in
the form of many poetic words. These writings were prohibited in Vietnam by the
authorities. For that my father spent a certain time in prison and lost his
right to work, neither to publish his texts, until his death.
