The theme of this year's Queer Chinese Art Festival is ‘Queer Arts in the Pandemic', exploring the impact of the pandemic on Chinese LGBTQ+ communities globally and these queer artists' responses and survival strategies. Five outstanding artists of Chinese descent will present their enlightening and provocative artworks with diverse formats through four hybrid events to explore the concepts of home, community, identity, and cyber future.
