ENTRY DESCRIPTION
This image was captured in April 2025 during a trip to Hoi An, Vietnam, while attending the Hoi An Impression Show — a grand outdoor performance staged along the river. Under the cover of night, a group of performers rode glowing bicycles across a dark stage, leaving behind lines of light that resembled musical staves or tightropes suspended in void.

The minimalist contrast between the illuminated figures and the deep black surroundings creates a surreal sense of weightlessness, isolation, and movement. What struck me was how the riders seemed to float across time and space — like notes on a silent melody, or thoughts crossing the threshold between memory and dream.

This photograph is not just a documentation of a performance, but a reflection on solitude, rhythm, and the quiet poetry of fleeting moments.
