About the artwork

This picture shows a sturdy swing with deep blue poles and bright yellow ropes, set on a jagged surface of weathered rocks. The swing's simple wooden plank invites a moment of rest and reflection. Above, a red Vietnamese flag with a yellow star flies proudly in the wind, contrasting with the clear, blue-coloured sky. In the background, Con Dao's vast ocean stretches out, where two small green islands are visible on the horizon. Small details like weathered wood and the rugged stones make the place authentic, connecting the human element with the power of nature.

This photo was created during a trip to Con Dao, a place inspired by its rugged beauty and local culture. The combination of the playful element of the swing and the impressive nature around it symbolises a desire for freedom and simplicity. The flag recalls pride and attachment to this special place.

The atmosphere of the work is a mix of carefree and adventure, with a touch of nostalgia. The bright light and open space evoke a sense of calm and inspiration, while the empty swing invites dreams and reflection.

Technically, the photo was taken with a wide-angle lens, which brings out the contrast between the vibrant colours and blue light. The low viewpoint makes the swing appear powerful and monumental, while emphasising the space around it.

In an interior, this photo brings vibrant colour and a sense of space. Perfect for people who love travelling, nature and cherishing simple, meaningful moments.
