HanoiHaiku is presented like a visual Haiku. Intentionally left untitled, the juxtaposition of images produces their own narratives, temporal connections, and is open to many interpretations infused with the personal experiences of individual viewers.

Similar to the Japanese Haiku, they are observations in its purest form, distilled into a simple gesture, a moment of reflection, a point in a continuum, touching on the beauty of imperfection, in delicate, quiet, nuanced moments.

Shown as a complete series for the first time in Singapore, these works were made in Hanoi, Vietnam during Sherman's residency with the Goethe Institut Hanoi. Selected works from this series has been shown at PhotoQuai Musee du Quai Branly Paris, Angkor Photo Festival, the Singapore Art Show, Hanoi Fine Arts Museum, Vietnam and in Amsterdam. This series will be exhibited in a solo show in Tokyo and the Jakarta Biennale later this year.
