The Motorbike Diaries: Vietnamese Horse Racing
When I was small, I lived next to a horse pasture. There were no more than three horses at any one time and they all seemed pretty old and calm, as I remember it. I used to run past them and dart towards the trees at the corner of the fence. There I had a [...]

Transit – Post Exhibition
Some where between slightly and extremely inebriated, my assistant Ky Nguyen made these photographs of our group exhibition, “Transit.” Last Friday, four artists based in Saigon came together to display and sell their art to raise money for the city’s Ung Buou Cancer Hospital. We had a good turnout through out the night and every [...]

Blue
Memories are like water
Flowing in and out
I try to hang on to one,
But the current is too strong.
I hate this day
The day the sun came to greet me
I much prefer the shield of gray
My colorless world is more comfortable.
The melancholy blue consumes me
Like an ocean wave toppling
I fight against its force,
And I am dragged along [...]

The Motorbike Diaries: In My Backyard
I keep notebooks that are labeled by topics: Politics, Health, Education, Economy, Urban Development, Post War, Overseas Vietnamese and Climate/Environment. I cut out stories every day from several English-speaking newspapers that I think are pertinent to these topics and staple them in.
Today I came across an article with the headline: City dumps 80% of [...]

Six Photos to D.C.
I love being around other photographers. I am always filled with such a sense of belonging and inspiration. LUCEO is my new newspaper staff. The camaraderie that I miss dearly in newspapers is strong with my colleagues. And when we are together it seems to be a nerdy commercial for Canon with a camera in your [...]
