Working on Sài Gòn sau vai – Behind the Shoulders of Saigon was one of those projects that hits you right in the ❤️. As one of the lead artists, I didn’t just want to capture the surface, I wanted to show the pulse of the city, the everyday moments that go unnoticed but tell the real story.

When the project went viral, it became clear: it wasn’t just about the art; it was about connection. The people of South Vietnam saw themselves in it—the hustle, the resilience, the beauty in the chaos. We didn’t play it safe; the illustrations are raw, unconventional, and a little messy, just like Saigon itself. And people felt that. 🛵

This project opened doors, sparking others like Saigon 3 Meters Space and Saigon in the Rain. It reminded me that when you tell a story authentically, people listen. This wasn’t just an art series—it became a conversation with the city. 🌆 I walked away with a renewed sense of purpose: it’s not just about making art; it’s about creating something that resonates, that reflects the soul of a place and its people. 🌿
