Lesley Loksi Chan is an artist and filmmaker whose practice is concerned with questions of invisibility, believability and resistibility. Her work asks how material culture and image culture affect the particular ways we think, remember, and live together. Through experimental, handmade and process-based filmmaking, she creates moving-images as mementos. Chan is a daughter of Chinese-Canadian settler immigrants from British Hong Kong and was born in Hamilton, Ontario, Canada which is situated upon the traditional territories of the Eerie, Neutral, Huron- Wendat, Haudenosaunee and Mississaugas.

Lesley Loksi Chan’s poignant work of archival intimacy blends fragments of her research notes with the unfinished footage of Lloyd Wong, a man who documented his life living with AIDS in the early 1990s. Rough and unprocessed, her film explores the meaning of queer inheritance, of incompletion, and the act of repeated looking.
