Vân-Nhi Nguyễn lives and works in Hà Nội, Việt Nam. Nguyen is interested in how images are produced, circulated and consumed in mainstream culture and media - photography beyond image-making. She draws from a range of disciplines, borrowing methodologies from documentary, performances, and traditional fine arts. Within each work, Nguyen creates highly considered, layered, sculptural photography through the process of image making or collecting, image “manipulation” and then rephotographing it, which are offset by conditions for speculations, and improvisation.
