About Mylyn Nguyen

Mylyn Nguyen has developed several solo exhibitions that have humorously explored her childhood memories and curiosities. Her bodies of work have varied in appearance, approach and materials, yet all are imbued with an incredible skill and wondrous imagination. Nguyen received a Master of Visual Arts in 2006 from Sydney College of the Arts. She has exhibited internationally twice with Brenda May Gallery/MAY SPACE at Art Stage Singapore. In recent years, Nguyen completed a number of public commissions; notably, hundreds of paper koi fish seen beneath people’s feet at Customs House, Sydney (for Something Else is Alive, presented by the City of Sydney and The Curators’ Department) and an installation of paper moth’s in the subterranean cavity in the main entrance of Carriageworks for Installation Contemporary in 2015, a curated component of Sydney Contemporary. 

This event is part of the Council curated exhibition Inner Edge Drifting and the Chatswood Year of the Rabbit Festival, the North Shore’s premier Lunar New Year celebrations presented by Willoughby City Council.
