Gia Tinh Lam is a multidisciplinary artist whose work explores the intersection of art direction, moving image, and audiovisual storytelling. In 2024, she launched Self Service, a year-long series of personal projects, that serve as both a vessel for transforming her inner world into tangible expressions. This initiative not only documents her evolving artistic journey, but also serves as a tool for self-exploration and reflection, capturing the beauty of simply becoming over the pursuit of perfection. Viewing each project as a stepping stone to the next allows Gia Tinh to freely grow into her artistry, while deepening her connection to self at the same time.

During her time at Nowhere, Gia Tinh will focus on her second project, delving into her ancestral lineage across multiple generations. Through research into the histories of displacement within her family, she examines the intergenerational impact of (forced) migration. This exploration will be shown under Alchemising the Sound of Displacement; an audiovisual translation that highlights these powerful themes into a sensory experience.
