Anne has been a loyal visitor to Vietnam for many years. She finds interest in intertwining the images of beauty, particularly the portrait of young Vietnamese girls in advertisements, with the realities and hints of mythology, such as the revered mother goddesses of Vietnam. This blending of aesthetic conventions with the strength of real life highlights the strength of women, the challenges of ageing, and the resilience needed to thrive in the face of nature's power, all against the newly emerging urban environment. Anne finds beauty in the sweetness and delicacy of femininity amongst this dynamic environment.
