Xiona Li is a Chinese transgender filmmaker based in London whose work seeks to explore and represent the experiences of gender and sexual minorities within Asia-specific cultural contexts. With a background in fiction film, she is best known for her cult indie feature The Artist (2021) and for producing documentary portraits of artists for galleries. Her approach is deeply informed by art practices, philosophical inquiries, and gender studies, often incorporating new technologies and media—such as AI-generated imagery and 3D representations within virtual environments. Through these methods, Xiona aims to capture, question, and interpret the complexities and intersections of diverse lived realities, especially in a time marked by multifaceted identities.
