RIZ NOIR
Anna Moï
Riz Noir is a book for the loss of innocence, a hymn- book for the Vietnamese women, dragon’s daughters according their tradition, daughters of water and fire, delicate and unbeatable.
1968, Vietnam: violence raises after Tet’s attack, Saigon gives up to fire and destruction. Beyond what actual happens, Anna Moï through her book sees and feels Vietnam of her childhood; through the characters of her book and their memories, nostalgic pictures, smells, ceremonies, colors: black of lacquered silk and prison’s walls, white like rice and lime, yellow as the cloths of Buddhist and red as the paper which sent the bad spirits away or the color of blood.
