Haena NOH （盧해나 ）is a Seoul-based curator currently working at ARKO Art Center.

She served as a researcher for an archiving project of Asia at the Asia Culture Center (2015-2017) and worked at the 2019 Venice Biennale Korean Pavilion. Since 2022, she has been part of WESS, a cooperative platform with eleven curators.
