Cẩm-Anh Lương (she/they) is a Vietnamese new media artist and designer from Vietnam, currently based in Berlin. Their work focuses on personal narratives, migration, and the politics of memory, using mixed media or virtual reality to create immersive, interactive experiences that challenge perceptions of reality. These immersive installations and virtual worlds would then serve as platforms for exploring forgotten histories shaped by the legacies of colonization, state propaganda, and stereotypes imposed on Southeast Asian migrant female* bodies.
Cẩm-Anh was awarded the kultur_formen Durchstarten grant in 2020, the DAAD Abschlussarbeit Stipendium in 2024, and has participated in various funded projects with scientists, artists, and musicians. Her work has been exhibited in a group performance at Berlin Biennale 10, nGbK, Vorspiel Berlin, Carnival of Algorithmic Culture Toronto, and documenta-fifteen.
