Canary in the coal mine
This performance took place simultaneously within the period of sunset that gradually fell into the night. Under the mysterious sky, I sat on a rotted platform that was abandoned on the rooftop of the Quoc Thao Theatre. Facing my back against the poetic moment of sunset, I held each mannequin’s head into my body and started to mourn for the future.
