(VOV) -Using techniques of superimposition and photo montage, German photographer Matthias Meyer has blurred the lines between authenticity and imitation in a unique exhibition you won’t want to miss.
By cleverly superimposing 20 images of Paris and Hanoi, the imaginative artist has created alternately quirky and poignant images bringing together various aspects of the two urban worlds.
The free exhibition, themed Disorientation – a Small Paris in Hanoi, will run July 22-26 at the Goethe Institute in Hanoi.
