Bamboo Strips in Hoi An

by Justin Sims

A shopkeeper in a lime-green shirt stands behind a low wooden work stool in a Hoi An lantern workshop, his hands busy shaping bamboo strips under the warm, slanting light of late afternoon. The foreground is dominated by a woven bamboo basket tray holding tools like a bone folder and a rotary cutter, slightly out of focus against the sharper mid-ground where the artisan works. Yellow silk panels hang from the ceiling, casting long, geometric shadows across the polished floor and proving the location through their distinctive regional craft. A sudden gust of wind lifts the hem of the shopkeeper's shirt, revealing a glimpse of his waistband as he pauses to wipe sweat from his brow.
