‘Solidly constructed from 3 tons of salt, this quiet, elegant sculpture appears stranded but also suggests a latent dynamism and movement. Reminiscent of fish or collected grains of rice, it is a monument to the women and children who remain to work on the salt fields in the north, as the men and young boys are sent to work afar – a vessel for life sustenance.’ 

Quynh Pham, Director of Galerie Quynh, HCMC, speaking about Nguyen Phuong Linh’s‘Salt’ installation
