Chau Nguyen (b. Hanoi, Vietnam) (they/she) is a Vietnamese immigrant artist based in Philadelphia. They draw from concepts of translation, memory, cultural symbols, affect theory, materiality, and research on Vietnamese histories to convey frictions at the intersection of cultural identity, colonial fragments, and transnationalism.

They were an artist-in-residence at 77Art Center (VT) and Chautauqua Art Institution (NY).

They worked on curatorial projects in conjunction with New Kensington CDC and Bryn Mawr College. Nguyen also served on the DEI Council at Comoto Holdings, a major U.S. platform in motorsports, where they co-led Comoto’s first women’s employee resource group.


Nguyen has received grants and awards from The Loretta C. Duckworth Scholars Studio at Temple University Libraries, The Office of Arts, Culture and the Creative Economy (OACCE), Tyler School of Art and Architecture, The Charlotte W.
