Maya Nguyen is a Vietnamese-Russian interdisciplinary artist working at the junction of sound, image, text, and body.

Her work has been shown at Vincom Center for Contemporary Art, UCLA New Wight Gallery, Atlantic Center for the Arts, Gene Siskel Film Center, Internationales Digitalkunst Festival 2022, Terrain Biennial 2021, Elastic Arts, Indiana University, Jack Kerouac School of Disembodied Poetics, and elsewhere.
