グエン・ヴァン・チョイ通りの控えめなカフェの裏に、先週私は魔法のような場所を見つけました。そこは地元のコー族アーティスト、ニャンが伝統的な高地の模様にインスパイアされた素晴らしい現代アート作品を制作する小さなアートスタジオです。中に一歩足を踏み入れると、まるでダラットの霧と山々が息づいているかのようなキャンバスに囲まれました。
「ほとんどの観光客は私たちを見つけられません」とニャンは微笑みながら、松林のエメラルドグリーンを完璧に捉えた顔料を混ぜていました。「でも見つけた人は、ダラットの魂をより深く理解します」
この隠れた宝石は、観光客で賑わう花園や湖の写真とは別に、静かに花開くダラットのアートシーンの一部です。過去1ヶ月間、私はこの山の街のクリエイティブな裏側を探検し、フランス風ヴィラを改装したギャラリー、かつてのコーヒー加工場にあるアーティスト集団、ベトナム現代アートと高地の伝統が融合するスタジオを発見しました。
最も印象的なのは、これらのアーティストがダラットの独特なエネルギーを捉えていることです。朝の霧が普通の風景を夢のような景色に変える様子や、涼しい高地の空気が時間の流れを遅く感じさせる様子。彼らの作品は、私たちが誇る視覚的な美しさだけでなく、山の暮らしの深いリズムを映し出しています。
第1区の古い植民地建築での実験的インスタレーションから、中央高原の季節の移り変わりを写し出す写真展まで、ダラットのアートシーンは静かなルネサンスを迎えています。そして何より素晴らしいのは、ほとんどのスペースが訪問者を歓迎し、街のクリエイティブな精神をまったく異なる視点で体験できることです。
