The exhibition - Revived - Photo Hanoi'23

(EN) EXHIBITION "PLACE OF BELONGING"

Hai Thanh (b.1972) has an insatiable drive to photograph. For nearly 30 years, documenting and archiving have been a daily practice.

Nine years ago, Hai Thanh, who was always in a constant state of in-betweenness, settled down, had a family, and relocated to an unfamiliar city. A sense of displacement urges him to explore the notion of "home" in such a personal way, which resulted in a thoughtful journey to fatherhood.

Using still images, Hai Thanh’s endeavor provides an appropriate pretext for us to examine a "place" we hold dear, an intimate landscape, a nostalgic moment, a familiar recollection; it was an invitation to gaze both inward and outward. These photographs compose a beautiful tribute to family bonds, with all the joy, complexity and intricacies that they carry.
