Han Pham is a multi-disciplinary artist based in San Francisco, CA. Her work explores the robust humor and fragile beauty of the mundane moments normal people would rather forget. Her stories have been featured on the radio, in the McGraw-Hill anthology Encounters: Essays for Exploration and Inquiry, and in publications including the non-fiction webzine Ostrich Ink, Hyphen Magazine, and Nguoi Viet. She has also written, choreographed, and performed for the Vietnamese theater ensemble, Club O'Noodles, on both stage and film. She recently served on the curatorial committee of APAture, a multi-disciplinary arts festival presenting the work of emerging Asian Pacific American artists in the San Francisco Bay Area and was recently showcased in the 24Hour Show, a site-specific art installation featuring six Asian-American artists spanning dance, performance, spoken word, photography and visual art. She is currently at work on several projects from dance to visual art, including an upcoming anthology with the Vietnamese Artist Collective on Vietnamese American art and writing in the San Francisco Bay Area to be released in Spring 2006.
