Hiền Hoàng (b. 1990) is an interdisciplinary artist working between Germany, UK and Vietnam. Her practice moves across photography, moving image, installation, and scientific research, exploring how violence and displacement leave traces on landscapes and humans, reflecting on the tension between cultural belonging and distance, between data and emotion. Her current research returns to Vietnam to investigate the ecological and psychological legacy of Agent Orange, examining how the land continues to hold histories of trauma and transformation, and how art can open new ways of sensing these entangled memories.
In 2024, Hoàng received the prestigious Paul Huf Award, leading to her solo exhibition at Foam Fotografiemuseum Amsterdam in 2025. Her work has also been shown at VCCA Vietnam, Les Rencontres d’Arles, CentroCentro Madrid, and other international art venues, reflecting on the evolving role of photography in postcolonial memory and technological mediation.
