A well-known Vietnamese proverb states: ‘Có bệnh thì vái tứ phương’ (‘a sick person has to bow in all four directions), meaning one must try to do whatever they can to solve a problem. This artwork illustrates the proverb elegantly with four figurines bowing in different poses and facing all four cardinal directions.
