About the Artwork
This atmospheric photograph captures the interior of a colonial-era opium den—likely in French Indochina (Vietnam, Laos, or Cambodia)—during the turn of the 20th century. The reclining figures, surrounded by incense burners, statuettes, calligraphy panels, and ornate lacquered furnishings, suggest a space both sensual and ritualistic. More than mere indulgence, opium use was deeply woven into the aesthetics, politics, and anxieties of the colonial experience. The image is a complex study of intimacy, escape, and empire.
