"A space where old-fashioned imagery lies hidden within the opulent beauty of ritualistic colors. It is enveloped in the strangeness brought about by the gap and disconnection of time, where beauty and sadness, splendor and loneliness coexist. This work invites the viewer on a journey of "entering," "playing a cassette tape," "looking into a mirror," and "viewing Thuong (Vietnamese traditional art)."

Nananarc was in charge of the set design for this project. There are 4 white panels decorated on both sides with colorful joss papers that are set on fire as fortune offerings for dead relatives, ancestors and gods during traditional events. Depends on the need, the panels can be flipped and combined to create new and suitable background for the actors.
