Thủy Lê Thi Thu

° Ho Chi Minh City (VN)Lives and works in [email protected] instagram.com/__twie Thủy explores the dynamic relationship between body, language and environment — not to fuse them but to confuse them. Her work shapeshifts across media, contexts, and inter-actions with the audience, at the intersection of visual and performing arts. She constructs paradoxical worlds and immersive experiences that invite participants to broaden their perception and cultivate a deeper connection with themselves and their surroundings. Like someone who has never truly felt at home in one world, her work moves between different houses and hovers around themes such as embodied experience, origin stories, the dominant gaze, lost land, and social creativity.
