INFO

Maggie Lung is a Belgian filmmaker, writer and nail artist of Cantonese descent based in Antwerp. She holds a bachelor’s degree in Audiovisual Arts and is currently completing her master’s in Film at LUCA School of Arts in Brussels.

Her work moves between experimental and essayistic film and often starts from personal histories, family, memory, diaspora, womanhood and intimacy. She works with archival material, voice-over, found footage and digital fragments, using film as a way to hold on to things that might otherwise disappear.

Alongside her film practice, she runs Studio Vitalesca, a nail art practice shaped by fashion, subculture, ornament and excess. She creates custom nail work for individual clients as well as editorial, fashion and collaborative projects.
