"Burn to be" is an exhibition including installations, video and text exploring the theme "re -migration", efforts to settle in the supposedly "correct" home and subsequent departure from the given country from the position of a second-generation Vietnamese woman.

Through olfactory memories and observation of falling ashes, the author explores the phenomenon of leaving, and the very fact that sometimes it is okay to leave.

Lê Thị Hoài (1992, Đà Nẵng, VNM) is a Czech-Vietnamese graphic designer and visual artist. She studied journalism at the UK, visual communication at the UMPRUM in Prague and is currently completing her art studies at the Sandberg Instituut in Amsterdam.
