“Nàng” (The Lady) is the first piece in which Nhichancanh challenged herself with the A0 format in linocut technique. As her debut in such a large scale, this rubber block required significant patience compared to smaller works. The piece was created by assembling four A2 rubber plates - each detail had to align almost perfectly, from the sketch to carving and printing stages.

The concept of “Nàng” was inspired by "Jeune fille à l’éventail" of Mai Trung Thu, but reimagined by Nhichancanh: instead of holding a fan, the girl embraces the head of a Lý Dynasty dragon-an emblem of power and sacredness in Vietnamese culture. Behind her, blooming peach blossoms evoke springtime in Hanoi - a season of reunion and togetherness. The carving process alone took over 32 hours to complete, while each print required 20 - 60 minutes, involving color blending, alignment of four blocks, and multiple test prints.

With “Nàng”, Nhichancanh wishes to bring Vietnamese cultural imagery into a contemporary context - revitalizing heritage while honoring the past and expressing a vibrant modern perspective through new artistic methods.
