In his own words, artist Wittner Fabrice describes the evolution of his new work in Vietnam. Keep in mind these are not digital, but rather long-exposure photos created with lights shone through large cut stencils. See Wittner Fabrice website.

Following the first opus of Enlightened Souls in Christchurch, I went to cut my stencils out in Hanoi, Vietnam.
I didn’t expected to work on a second series of characters during my journey in Hanoi, but my schedule went lighter than I thought and I needed to find an occupation.
September was dedicated to a simple trip across Vietnam, as a standard tourist.
In Sapa - one of the hot spot for tourism in North Vietnam - I realized vietnamese city-dweller tourists were a bit sniffy and picky with the local people from the mountains. Tourism doesn’t always wear the happy face of a brochure but as tourist myself, I couldn’t criticize too hard…
Anyway, this is how the enlightened idea occurred for the second time. Back in the capital I had two more month to prepare my material. Like a little joke, I thought it could be funny to let some country-side kids wandering in the streets of Hanoi, like country mice visiting their town mouse cousins.
