Chan Ka Kiu was born in 1995 in Toronto, Canada. She received her M.F.A. from City University of Hong Kong, School of Creative Media in 2021.
Chan Ka Kiu’s practice is grounded in visual cultural anthropology, examining what it means to be human within algorithmic and generative systems. Using found materials—ranging from footage and memes to AI models and 3D scans—Chan reinterprets fragments of a data- and material-saturated world into layered narratives across video, installation, and performance. Her works function as informal studies of how information, technology, and emotion intersect in contemporary life. Each project often begins with an everyday observation that expands into research on digital and physical remnants, treating coincidence, humor, and dissonance as methods to question how shared experiences and memory are constructed today.
Chan Ka Kiu currently lives and works in Hong Kong.
