This photography project is being conducted in various provinces across Vietnam. The majority of the photographs are captured by men who have sex with men (MSM), portraying diverse aspects of their lives—both in urban and rural settings.
 
Aiming to empower MSM to express their experiences regarding life, love, sexuality, HIV/AIDS, and related social issues, the exhibition strives to provide a comprehensive perspective on MSM’s lives and to challenge the entrenched prejudices against homosexuality in Vietnamese society.

MSM currently ranks third among the high-risk groups for HIV/AIDS in Vietnam, following individuals who inject drugs and sex workers. Reports indicate that out of the global population, approximately 2-5% identify as gay, which suggests that the Vietnamese gay community encompasses around 2 million individuals among Vietnam's 44 million male population.
 
While the exhibition will prominently feature the experiences of gay men, it will also explore various cultural and social dimensions of Vietnam through the perspectives of MSM.
