Nguyễn Zen Mỹ is an Italo-Vietnamese artist based in Brussels. Her diverse heritage, training and experiences have, through the years made her constantly investigate new methodologies and gestures and build bridges between her tools and activities: music, education, writing, drawing, publishing. Trained as a classical pianist and with an initial background in art printing, she has graduated from the University of the Arts London (MA CD Central Saint Martins) and the Royal Academy of the Hague (Type & Media Master) specializing in typography (visualizing language), type design and editorial practices.
She has been a full Professor at the Academy of Arts in Strasbourg, France (HEAR Strasbourg) since 2012 where she has co-founded the Graphic […] languages Master program and a common program with the University of the Arts Strasbourg.
Since 2022 she has joined the historical French publishing house Editions Corti dedicated to poetry & litteratture and run the poetic imprint DSCRD press.
As Radio Hito, she has quickly gained recognition in the last years through her minimalist yet powerful performances in festivals and venues all over Europe. Her last two albums have been published by Midi Fish and Kraak Records in Belgium. With her next release based on the book «l’Usage et les attributs du cœur» by French poet Claude Royet-Journoud, she continues to question the enigma and limits of language – both poetic and musical.
RADIO HITO is an artist of the SHAPE+ platform for innovative music and interdisciplinary art, co-funded by the European Union and Pro Helvetia.
