Visiting Assistant Professor of Film Alison Nguyen was featured in Art in America’s "New Talent 2025" Issue, a list of 20 emerging artists to watch. Alongside this honor, Nguyen was profiled in ArtNews. Since 2021, Art in America has chosen 20 new artists who are significant figures in their field from around the world. Nguyen’s art uses sculpture and video to combine personal details with an exploration into broader forces of technology and history.
For ArtNews, Beatrice Loayza writes about Nguyen’s installation History as Hypnosis and Andra8, Nguyen’s machine-learning program which she cast as a human woman in My Favorite Software Is Being Here. “[Nguyen’s] video works, which explore American mythologies, visual culture, and digital labor practices, unfold uncanny worlds from shreds of history,” she writes.
