Profile
Tuan Mami is an interdisciplinary and experimental artist working in the fields of site-specific installation, video, performance, and conceptual art, constantly exploring new media, means, and methods, evolving through introspective inquiry and social investigation. In recent years, he has been on the move, exploring and observing notions of how we are “human”. Since 2014, Mami has been researching the Vietnamese diaspora in Vietnam and around the world. Mami seeks to observe what happened and what remained in these communities, from their cultural, spiritual, and political contexts to their attempts to adapt and survive in new contexts. His focus is on questions about life, the social interactions between people and between people and the environment, and he tries to reconstruct situations where people and objects from a particular reality enter and engage together in social processes.
