Duyên Linh: The Imprint of Buddhism Across Time traces the evolving presence of Tibetan Buddhism in Vietnam, from temple statues and scroll paintings to prayer flags, monk robes, and digital media. Structured around five Buddhist ideas — navigating, attracting, emitting, spinning, and tying — the exhibition shows how these traditions are practiced in everyday life through personal stories, lived experience, and creative expressions of faith. Curated by Hoàng Ngọc An and Stephen Christopher, it was shown at the Hải An Gallery in Hồ Chí Minh City (March–May 2026) and continues here as a virtual exhibition.
