Lesley Loksi Chan
Lesley Loksi Chan is a Canadian video artist most noted for her 2025 film Lloyd Wong, Unfinished. Her 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. Her other films have included My Matsura (2006), Wanda & Miles (2007), Curse Cures (2009), Redress Remix (2010) and The Urge to Run a Lap (2017).
