Ezra Chiu probes at the intersections within different mediums through a literary lens, in order to reconcile fantastical and surreal narratives within everyday life. He creates a space for empathy towards the monstrous, inviting the audience to shared vulnerability.

Abject tenderness is an overarching theme in his practice. In playing with self-reflection as a device for alienation, he reconciles aspects of fractured or lost identities. He draws from his own experience as a transmasc, second-generation British-Chinese person.

Chiu’s work walks the line between humorous and grotesque. He greets the kitsch with sombre earnestness.
