Florian Song Nguyen (b.1988) is a Franco-Vietnamese artist living between Paris, Ho Chi Minh City, and Marrakech. His practice centers on drawing as a permeable medium — one that gathers memory, summons imagination, and traces the fragile bonds between humans and other forms of life. Through installations, artist

books, performances, and collaborative projects, he develops visual narratives where the intimate meets the mythical, and where reality is quietly unsettled by fiction.

His work has been shown internationally, including at the 12th Berlin Biennale (2022), the Musée Jenisch in Vevey (2024), Drawing Now in Paris (2024, 2025), and the Musée des Beaux-Arts in Ho Chi Minh City (2018). He has presented solo exhibitions at the Institut Français in Hanoi (2017) and Ho Chi Minh City (2016), as well as in France at A2Z Art Gallery (Paris, 2025) and the Metaxu (Toulon, 2020). In parallel, he has collaborated on duo exhibitions at Arnaud Lebecq Gallery (Paris, 2024, 2025).

He has published two artist books: Tu sais les insectes aussi ont besoin d’amour (Inpages, 2022) and Les chiens errants (Four Eyes,2024).

His current research focuses on mythogenesis — exploring how fiction and myth can reshape silent histories, connect distant geographies, and reimagine our relationships with the living world.
