Chloé Saï Breil-Dupont (b. 1990), also known by her Vietnamese name Bùi Khuê, is a French-Catalan-Vietnamese artist whose multidisciplinary practice moves between painting, drawing, and narrative forms. Her work explores memory, identity, and the fluidity of belonging, often weaving together personal mythology with collective histories. Born in Paris, she studied at the Beaux-Arts in Biarritz and Annecy, followed by philosophy studies at PUC University in São Paulo. Breil-Dupont has participated in numerous international residencies, including La Villa Belleville (Paris), Ateliergemeinschaft Milchhof (Berlin), and La Villa Saigon (Ho Chi Minh City). In 2017 she created ‘Le Livre O’, a graphic novel distributed by major institutions such as the Centre Pompidou and the Palais de Tokyo. Between 2018 and 2020, she lived in Carrara, Italy, developing a distinct painterly language rooted in introspection and material sensitivity. Her recognition as one of the three laureates of the Jean-François Prat Prize in 2021 marked a significant moment in her career.
Recent solo exhibitions include all doors opened (Nicodim, Los Angeles, 2024), Our Tongues Have the Taste of Powder (Nicodim Upstairs, Los Angeles, 2023), I NEVER BROKE UP WITH YOU (Newchild Gallery, Antwerp, 2022), and The Unknown Beginning of a Very Long Story (Galeria Nicodim, Bucharest, 2022). Breil-Dupont currently lives and works in Ho Chi Minh City. Ở đây, ở đó và ở khắp mọi nơi is her first exhibition in Vietnam, tracing the intersections of displacement, intimacy, and return through a deeply personal visual language.
