0:04Overhead power lines have long been part

0:07of the urban landscape, often considered

0:09visual clutter.

0:12But for artist Witten, the tangled web

0:14of cables have been an endless source of

0:17artistic muse for more than two decades.

0:24They are a slice of history, a period of

0:26integration and the rapid rise of

0:28information technology. Whenever I see

0:30power lines, public loudspeakers or

0:32traffic lights, I feel a real sense of

0:35excitement. They always give me new

0:36inspiration to paint.

0:40>> With advances in technology, inspiration

0:43is everywhere. But an artist's own

1:27Wang has created a series of large-scale

1:30paintings inspired [music] by the bright

1:31neon construction billboards that

1:33reflect the city's rapid pace of change.

1:40It's not a new subject, but finding a

1:42fresh way to express it is never easy.

1:44I've had my share of setbacks along the

1:46way, but over the years, my work has

1:48developed its own identity. When people

1:50recognize a painting as mine, I know I'm

1:53on the right path.

2:01One artist captures what is just

2:03beginning to emerge in the city.

2:08The other preserves a disappearing

2:10feature.

2:15For [music] both of them, a generation

2:17of artists who call Hanoi home, every

2:20street [music] holds a story waiting to

2:22be told.
