INTERVIEW / Circular Living with Arlette Quỳnh-Anh Trần

Arlette Quỳnh-Anh Trần assumes many roles—increasingly on the quest to obtain indefinability in her output; she moves fluidly between artist, academic-researcher, curator, collective member, and catalyst. At her new home: Mài Apartment, we talk circles, global references, borderless style and dust phobias. The apartment design, led by Arlette, is a culmination of three years of effort, intersecting schools of thought and many individuals—Mài, meaning to hone or to polish.
