More precisely, it&#8217;s the artist herself split into two (interchangeable) roles: a storyteller and a listener, or a photographer and a model. This approach suggests a sense of theatricality that invites us to pay attention to the unfolding of her play\/diary. Be it lying in a huge puddle, climbing a window, leaning against a slanted pipe, hanging onto a laundry line or sitting nonchalantly under an umbrella, her physical gestures feel so organic that we could envision her performing some kind of choreographed movements in real life. Is it drama that imitates reality or the other way? Can you hear her conversations? Is she curiously searching for herself, or is she playfully dreaming?[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/6&#8243; offset=&#8221;vc_hidden-xs&#8221;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row content_placement=&#8221;middle&#8221;][vc_column][vc_empty_space height=&#8221;40px&#8221;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row full_width=&#8221;stretch_row_content&#8221; gap=&#8221;20&#8243; content_placement=&#8221;top&#8221;][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;3144&#8243; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221; add_caption=&#8221;yes&#8221;][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;3153&#8243; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221; add_caption=&#8221;yes&#8221;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row full_width=&#8221;stretch_row_content&#8221; gap=&#8221;20&#8243; content_placement=&#8221;middle&#8221;][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/3&#8243;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;3145&#8243; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221; add_caption=&#8221;yes&#8221;][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;2\/3&#8243;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;3146&#8243; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221; add_caption=&#8221;yes&#8221;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row content_placement=&#8221;middle&#8221;][vc_column][vc_empty_space height=&#8221;20px&#8221;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row content_placement=&#8221;middle&#8221;][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/6&#8243; offset=&#8221;vc_hidden-xs&#8221;][vc_column_text][\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;2\/3&#8243; offset=&#8221;vc_col-xs-12&#8243;][vc_column_text]Despite being the centerpiece of the photographs, Ya blends herself into the respective environments. These self portraits obscure the subject\u2019s face but emphasize the interaction between the body and the quotidian spaces, some of which are vague while some are recognizable. As Ya occupies these in-between spaces and moments, their reality becomes muddled and her identity becomes fluid, sometimes a just mirror reflection, sometimes a silhouette against a surface. The color palette offers a consistently washed-out look that conveys a sense of nostalgia. This nostalgic quality makes the photographs appear like some distant yet relatable memories and thus perhaps enhances the realness of her &#8216;stage&#8217;.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/6&#8243; offset=&#8221;vc_hidden-xs&#8221;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row content_placement=&#8221;middle&#8221;][vc_column][vc_empty_space height=&#8221;40px&#8221;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row full_width=&#8221;stretch_row_content&#8221; gap=&#8221;20&#8243; content_placement=&#8221;middle&#8221;][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/12&#8243;][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;10\/12&#8243;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;3149&#8243; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221; add_caption=&#8221;yes&#8221;][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/12&#8243;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row content_placement=&#8221;middle&#8221;][vc_column][vc_empty_space height=&#8221;20px&#8221;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row content_placement=&#8221;middle&#8221;][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/6&#8243; offset=&#8221;vc_hidden-xs&#8221;][vc_column_text][\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;2\/3&#8243; offset=&#8221;vc_col-xs-12&#8243;][vc_column_text]While this may not be her intention, Ya\u2019s photographs allude to the topic of gender roles in our contemporary society, especially in the context of Vietnam. By intervening with these spaces with or without clothes on, she makes an implicit statement about the restrictive attitudes towards women\u2019s body and code of conduct. From wrapping herself to a forklift truck to making out with a mannequin, Ya embraces freedom and independence in her own stories, charting her own whimsical journeys from picture to picture, place to place. Despite looking seemingly fragile, she takes full ownership of her body through the act of making these images, to treat the sight of her own blood like lighting a cigarette. She projects herself with confidence and intention.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/6&#8243; offset=&#8221;vc_hidden-xs&#8221;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row content_placement=&#8221;middle&#8221;][vc_column][vc_empty_space height=&#8221;40px&#8221;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row full_width=&#8221;stretch_row_content&#8221; gap=&#8221;20&#8243; content_placement=&#8221;middle&#8221;][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;3150&#8243; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221; add_caption=&#8221;yes&#8221;][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;3151&#8243; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221; add_caption=&#8221;yes&#8221;][vc_empty_space height=&#8221;20px&#8221;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;3152&#8243; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221; add_caption=&#8221;yes&#8221;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row content_placement=&#8221;middle&#8221;][vc_column][vc_empty_space height=&#8221;20px&#8221;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row content_placement=&#8221;middle&#8221;][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/6&#8243; offset=&#8221;vc_hidden-xs&#8221;][vc_column_text][\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;2\/3&#8243; offset=&#8221;vc_col-xs-12&#8243;][vc_column_text]This personal body of work opens up an important dialogue about what it means to expose personal details that render us vulnerable to the public, and to navigate ourselves through the way we photograph.
