HA NOI — Artworks made from 1,000 discarded peach branches will be displayed in an open-air permanent exhibition at Vicas Art Studio, 32, Hao Nam Street, tomorrow.

The branches were used to decorate houses during the Vietnamese Lunar New Year.

Rubbish of the Spring 2018 exhibition features installation artworks by four artists, portraying four different stories.

The Whale, by Pham Thi Hong Sam, highlights the uncontrolled whale massacres; Seed and Sprout by Ha Huy Muoi tells the story about life, movement and development; Missing the Woods by Le Duc Hung raises alarm about the widespread deforestation that is destroying the ecosystem; and The Society by Yen Nang conveys the message of living with a positive outlook.

All the artworks, however, have a common message: waste, through art, can be turned into something beautiful and useful.

By using discarded peach branches as the main material for their works, the artists aim to remind communities of a more positive interaction with their ecological and social environment.

Entry to the exhibition is free. — VNS
