“Things that count” is the theme of a photography exhibition being held jointly by the Belgian Embassy in Vietnam and the Royal Academy of Fine Arts Antwerp (Belgium) at the Matca Space for Photography in Hanoi.
The exhibition will last until July 7.
Taking place until July 7, the exhibition is an online collaboration between young photographers from Europe and Vietnam, highlighting values of life amidst the COVID-19 pandemic outbreak.
During a 10-week period from March to May 2021, students from the Photography department of the Royal Academy of Fine Arts in Antwerp, Belgium, held exchanges with young Vietnamese photographers about important current topics in modern society, especially during the times of uncertainty due to COVID-19.
The ten values include family, safety, gender, heritage, humour, intimacy, freedom, power, knowledge, and faith.
The resulting images and fragments of the written communication between the participants were published online, where perspectives were shared and friendships developed.
Several artworks from this project were selected for the exhibition at the Matca Space for Photography.
