About the book
An exploration of Vietnam's 'craft' villages which specialise in a single product or activity, from palm leaf hats to incense sticks. Some date back hundreds of years, whilst others are a more recent response to enable rural farmers to earn much-needed extra income. Tessa Bunney spent a year in Vietnam and visited many of these places. Her images are a mix of the craft works and everyday objects that fascinated her visually. Interspersed with images from daily life in the rice fields and in the villages, these photographs depict 'working from home'.
