Public Private Hanoi
photographer André Luetzen – www.andreluetzen.de
Hanoi by night: restless, bustling, claustrophobic. Breathless
heat and cramped living quarters drive people onto the city
streets. With doors and windows flung wide open, domestic
worlds spill out into the public arena. Flashes of intimacy
penetrate heady moods, resonant colour is fused with physical
proximity, and the constant rhythms of pavement narratives are
transformed into a complex fabric that lends almost palpable
presence to life in Vietnam’s capital.
