KNIFE IN A SPOON BOX
This series captures the lived experiences and evolving identities of the Vietnamese generation born after the transformative 1986 Đổi Mới reforms, a pivotal shift toward a socialist market economy. Through a lens of introspection and societal observation, the project explores how this generation navigates the complexities of modern life.
Balancing traditional family expectations and the demands of a rapidly digitizing world, they grapple with questions of purpose, spirituality, and self-definition. As they redefine cultural norms and assume the role of societal role models, these individuals are not only digesting the legacies of the past but also reimagining what the future holds for themselves and their communities.
