The Factory Contemporary Arts Centre, 15 Nguyen U Di, Thao Dien, District 2,

‘Paradise Lost’ by Hoang Thanh Vinh Phong (born 1971) will bring visitors to a world where the familiar is made strange, the mundane mythologised and the symbolic re-arranged. Through the shifting of shapes and twisting of material, images and objects from the everyday world are taken out of context, heightened with a sense of ambiguity, asking us to look beyond what our first glance has to offer.

Ticket: VND35,000 – VND25,000 (with appropriate student ID) – free for children under 16.
