Field: Performance art

Quywn is a performance practitioner born in Nha Trang, Khanh Hoa. She is living and working in HCMC. She has been practising performance art alongside video art since 2021. Quywn’s practices archive personal emotions, connections, the past and the present. She consistently channels her reflections into the shifts within her own artistic practice, the presence of the body, inner thoughts, and the ways these are narrated through those practices.

In 2024, Quywn performed at the group open studios Lèm Dì Dị (What’re You Doin’) in Nha Trang, Khanh Hoa; Nổ Cái Bùm in Da Nang and Hoi An by A Sông, MORUA & Symbioses 2024; and the Rebel Live Action #4 International Performance Festival in Bangkok – Chumsaeng, Nakhon Sawan, Thailand 2024.

HANOI GRAPEVINE’s FINEST is an annual event that honors contemporary art projects in Vietnam. The event is organized and nominated by Hanoi Grapevine and the general audience.

Entering its 6th year, Hanoi Grapevine’s Finest aims to go beyond an annual honouring event to become a contemporary archive of Vietnam’s art and cultural landscape, as well as a foundational platform to promote interdisciplinary collaborations both domestically and internationally, towards an open, fair, and transparent ecosystem.

This year, Hanoi Grapevine’s Finest 2024-2025 is divided into two major categories: Honouring and Recognition. Nominations are selected based on sets of criteria that aim to highlight the developmental significance and scale of impact, including activity level, community impact, creativity, organisational capability and artistic quality.
