Collecting and processing materials - Nguyen Thanh Mai

I mainly collected sandals and slippers and other materials for my arts work from the areas of Bao Vinh, Ru Cha, and Con Te near Tam Giang Lagoon, where sandals and slippers usually drift along with rubbish and get stuck at some of the higher banquettes in the lagoons.
