Lunch with Guest Artist: Hằng Hằng
Opening
Welcome to a guest artist talk with the artist Hằng Hằng, Wednesday December 3rd at 12:00.
Who: Hằng Hằng
When: Wednesday, December 03, 12:00–12:30
Where: LKV Kitchen, Mellomveien 3A Hằng Hằng is a Vietnamese artist, scenographer and performance maker based in Paris. Her work reexamines micro-histories and family narratives. Driven by curiosity and as a form of archaeological play, she spent several years exploring the house where she was born and then uncovering her family history intertwined with that of her country - its wars, politics, love, language, acts of forgetting. Rather than illustrating a story, Hằng Hằng unsettles it. She constructs porous spaces where forms, languages, and gestures resist explanation, where narratives fragment and dissipate. Viewers are invited to wander through these spaces, to feel the absence, and to experience the gap through sensual memory.
She is the founder of the Phú Lãng Sa Collective, a community of emerging Vietnamese artists based in Europe. In 2025, she was awarded the Dogma Prize and presented her first solo exhibition at Galerie BAO (Paris). Her work has also been shown at the Setouchi Triennale at the Kagawa Museum (Japan), the Linden Museum (Germany), Les Laboratoires d’Aubervilliers (France), as well as at Documenta 15, within Nhà Sàn Collective (Hanoi), among others.Pop in over your lunch break, bring your "matpakke" and share in the vibrant art community we have at LKV! Coffee and tea are on us!
