“Modern Giong Gods” by Nguyen Tran Uu Dam shows two "knights" riding motorbikes against their own made-up pythons: noise, air pollution, contaminated food, fine dust, and the threat of disease

"Boat" by Vu Xuan Dong consists of 4 sailboats made from 10,000 plastic bottles, recalling a dock on the Red River bank more than 100 years ago
