Phuong Thao Nguyen

Phuong Thao Nguyen

An artist and filmmaker, born 2000 in Hanoi. She works in France, Vietnam and Germany, following  the trails of people, stories, and objects through cultural and political borders, forming up until now a series of portraits situating each one in the current of history. She’s experimented with non-fiction in many forms: documentaries, fiction, sculpture, installation and literature. Over the years, Phuong Thao has developed a sensitive documentary practice that sometimes takes on the mode of ethnographic studies, bearing witness to life in unique communities, total strangers, with whom she forms deep bonds to create images.
Her works have been screened and shown in institutions such as the Centre Pompidou, the Centre de Cultura Contemporània de Barcelona and Piccadilly Circus, London.
