In 2021, Lem TragNguyen founded Hay Là- a platform focus on Performance Art in Vietnam.
Performance art and contemporary art, in general, are usually ephemeral with frail borderlines although they have their own language. Hay Là was founded with the hope to communicate this unique language to practitioners and people who are interested in performance art as a medium for parties to discuss and extend their limits. With an open mind, Hay Là aims at building a flourishing ecosystem in which activities and dialogues are always sparked and maintained, contributing to motivating the creative spirit for the performance art community and enthusiasts in Vietnam.
In 2022, Hay Là is nominated for Finest Project of the year 2023 initiated by Hanoi Grapevine() ()https://hanoigrapevine.com/2023/05/finest-project-nominees-hay-la/
