London-based artist, activist and Chinese drag king Whiskey Chow’s practice defies conventional boundaries, spanning performance, moving image, digital art, sculpture and experimental print to challenge established narratives around gender, masculinity and Asian identity. Through their multifaceted approach as an artivist – an artist with the heart of an activist – Chow creates work that interrogates systemic inequalities while carving out spaces for marginalised voices, particularly within the Chinese and other Asian diaspora communities and beyond. Drawing from their early experiences in feminist and LGBTQ activism in China, including organising groundbreaking events like For Vaginas’ Sake (將陰道獨白到底, 2013) and the first Chinese LGBTQ music festival, Lover Comrades Concert (愛人同志音樂會), Chow’s work offers a distinctive non-western perspective within western contexts. Their work you must everywhere wander (你必顧盼, 2021) in the exhibition On Queer Ground at Yorkshire Sculpture Park and performances at renowned institutions like the Tate Modern and V&A demonstrate the growing recognition of their unique artistic vision.
