Join us on Thursday, April 3 for an Open Studio of Virginie Tan and Aylin Derya Stahl, showcasing their latest work-in-progress during their residency in the past month!

Virginie Tan presents “loops to relax to”, a series of mixed-media installations, dissecting a habit we all share: the endless consumption of our feeds. Inspired by Saigon’s culinary scene, each piece of work highlights local food and exists on two layers of visual and auditory image.

Aylin Derya Stahl unveils an ongoing exploration of light’s interplay with landscapes and urban surfaces, focusing on processes of photodegradation and geological erosion.

Through these thought-provoking works, the audience is invited to reflect on their digital and physical surroundings, as well as their identity-bond with those.

EVENT DETAILS
Date: Thursday, April 3
Time: 19:00-21:00
Location: A. Farm Studios @ 6/4 Nguyen Dang Giai, Thao Dien, HCMC

ABOUT THE ARTISTS AND THEIR WORKS-IN-PROGRESS

Virginie Tan

March 2025

Virginie Tan is a London-based artist and designer, French born of Sino-Cambodian descent. She works across the virtual and the physical, blending interactivity, video, sound, and poetry. Her practice explores the dynamics of technology and its impact on humans’ behaviours, between the technological sublime and the daze it puts us through. 

With her latest series of mixed-media installations, she continues her exploration of digital intimacy, questioning how online rituals shape offline behaviours, and how parasocial bonds form between viewers and online personalities. 

Aylin Derya Stahl

March — April 2025

Aylin Derya Stahl is a Berlin-based artist working across photography, installation, moving image, sound, and text. Her practice examines the materialization of time, with a focus on the thresholds where images and objects shift between presence and disappearance. 

Interested in the way UV light and other processes of weathering dismantle both physical landscapes and the images we use to remember them, for this open studio, she presents a series of works that extend her artistic research of the (im)materiality of light and decay.
