Linh San is a multidisciplinary artist based in Hanoi, Vietnam. Linh holds a bachelor’s degree in Literature from the Hanoi National University of Education and her practice spans poetry, moving images, and ceramics. Her work depicts poetic, plain, and contemplative moments from daily life. Linh’s literary works often take the form of prose poetry, very much a reflection of her way of thinking—a stream of thoughts and mental images gushing through terrains of narratives and emotions connected via imaginative links.

San’s poems have appeared in The Margins, Poetry Translation Centre, and various anthologies. Her short films have been screened at Hanoi Goethe-Institut, Thai Nguyen University, and the National Museum of Indonesia, among other places. In 2022, Linh San presented her first solo exhibition, titled “no longer holding a cloud”, at Á Space, Hanoi. She received the Prince Claus Seed Award 2023 as an emerging artist.
