'Just by Being', consisting of a series of paintings on old books, pharmacopoeia or old bibles by Tày minority people from Tay Bac (Northwest mountainous areas of Vietnam) using natural pigment originated from soil or flowers and plants; and a series of 9 sculptures made out of paper and clay, acts as a chronicle of a vanishing culture, but also brings hope and life to the ruins of time.
