"Keen to capture the vivid, ever-changing landscapes of Vietnam’s cities, Trung
Dong seeks out seemingly mundane activities that, when photographed from a
unique angle or in the warmth of golden hour, reveal their exceptional nature.
Based in Ho Chi Minh City, Dong frequently travels around his home country to
spotlight the people and places that comprise daily life, and his
Fruit
ladies series is one such project.
Comprised of aerial images that peer down at the street below, the collection
highlights merchants hauling baskets of fruits, vegetables, flowers, and more
to market. Many wear conical sun hats that conceal their faces, their
particular postures, clothing, and goods offering the only insights into their
identities.
Dong is currently working on additional series that capture similar activities
from the same angle, along with a collection of images from the rivers of
southern Vietnam. Explore his portfolio on Instagram."
