Unforgotten land

Installation
Hair, faux leather fabric
Dimensions variable
2025


The image of two children waiting for their mother. One in a hair salon—hair falling down, piling and crawling, a shrouding landscape—her mother always before her. The other outside a bombed house, the scorched landscape taking shape—her mother never returns.

Bố không biết mình đang ở đâu

Immersive Installation / Performance
Jacquard Weaving, Alluminium sculpting
2023


The audience is drawn into a setting that Hang calls a “garden.” She invites us into a space bathed in blue and silver, filled with strange elements and the earthy scent of rain-soaked soil. Three people, dressed entirely in blue, take turns reciting a poem in Vietnamese, English, and French. Then, Hang slowly pulls numerous drawings, photos, and books from a suitcase. It speaks of untranslatable meanings, of forms that resist explanation.

Thị
100 years, 3 days, 30 minutes


Documentary film
30’
2025


The film is the last part of “Thị,” a long-term project exploring family history centered around a childhood home in northern Hanoi. 

One day, the father decided to demolish the house following the advice of a feng shui consultant. As fragments fall, random conversations emerge, uncovering the connections between father, daughter, and their ancestor. 

A century of the house's existence, three days of demolition, and thirty minutes of film. When the house disappears, what will remain of their presence?

Carré Arrondi —Feet, hands, water
Organised by Common Stories
2025

Identity constructions are based on and strengthened by stories and experiences. Stories tell who we are and who we strive to become, they question and challenge the way we see ourselves and the others. We, 6 performing art organizations based in Europe, believe that a diversity of stories and a multiplicity of perspectives will allow for a more accurate and fair understanding of the political, cultural and social challenges we have to face in order to create common grounds in European societies in transformation.

Atelier MédicisParis, France

Residency with children “ Création en cours 9”

January - June 2025
Printemps Précoce
Hằng Hằng continues her work of reexamining micro-history and family archives by sharing her experiences with children at the Macdonald Public Comprehensive School. Through a multidisciplinary approach, she invites the children to participate in sensory and performative workshops where the hand can reflect and the nose can perceive space, while encouraging them to express their thoughts, memories, and to evoke their family history.

These stories reveal our identity while shedding light on and challenging our perception of ourselves and others. The plurality of narratives and perspectives helps us better understand political, social, and cultural issues.
