Press Release

Join us for the closing celebration of Ceci N’est Pas Une Guerre – This Is Not a War, featuring “Cousin”, a performance by Van Khanh and Quin Quynh Luong that explores interdependence, intimacy, and liberation, curated by Do Truong Linh.

Van Khanh works across printed matter, textiles, and sculpture, reimagining Vietnamese traditions and mythologies through tactile processes and digital transformations.

Quin Quynh Luong is an artist, writer, and cultural researcher whose practice examines anime and manga’s image politics, media infrastructures, and the utopian potential of alternative communities.

Cool off with a taste of Vietnam: Trà Đào Cam Sả (peach and lemongrass tea) from Khuay Project and Chè Khúc Bạch, a silky panna cotta–style dessert with longan and pandan syrup—light, refreshing, and perfect for a summer evening.
