East Meets Words / VyVy Trinh
(flier credits: illustration: VyVy Trinh, text: Sudo)
A California native, VyVy Trinh dreams of changing the world through both art and science, harboring ambitions to become a writer and a pediatrician in global health. She wants to touch human life with her hands and to write down every story she finds along the way.
As an artist, VyVy focuses mainly on fiction and creative nonfiction. A profound lover of history, she believes one of the most powerful ways to narrate political events is through the telling of individual stories. As the daughter of Vietnamese refugees, she sets many of her stories within this diaspora but hopes to tell something universally human.
A current student at Brown University, VyVy is an activist at heart and commits as much of her spare time as possible to creating social change. She recently served as a head organizer for Home for the Holla Days, a benefit concert for Vietnamese girls at risk of human trafficking, featuring the Boston Progress house band.
