Track 01: Exhibition | Living Festival

About this track

The Exhibition | Living Festival explores what an exhibition can become when it is not fixed, finished or simply something to look at. Presented as part of the Vietnam Festival of Creativity and Design’s Living Festival, it brings together works by national and international artists, photographers and designers, creating a space for creative exchange across cultures, disciplines and perspectives.
Rather than presenting completed works as fixed outcomes, the exhibition creates a space where processes can unfold. Works may be made, altered, activated, performed, experienced or reinterpreted throughout the festival, inviting audiences to become participants in the exhibition’s development. In this way, the exhibition is constantly changing, shaped by the people who enter it, the ideas they contribute and the encounters that take place.
Bringing together practices across art, design, photography, craft, film, digital media and performance, the Living Exhibition reflects the diversity and energy of contemporary creative practice in Vietnam and beyond.
The exhibition is also an invitation to question what a festival can be. Can an exhibition become a space for dialogue, exchange and collective making rather than simply display? Through these questions, the Living Exhibition contributes to a wider conversation about how festivals might evolve in Vietnam: as living platforms for creativity, participation, connection and shared imagination.
