CHU Lok Ting, Natalie was born in Hong Kong in 1999. She graduated from the Chinese University of Hong Kong, majoring in Fine Arts in 2022. Through keen interests on ancient east Asian art history and memorative rituals, she developed a demi-archaeology and research-based approach to express her concerns towards cultural heritage conservation in modern era, and how individual memory and microhistories converge into a bigger picture of collective memory and microhistory. CHU coordinates found objects, archival materials, texts and antiquities into installation, sculpture and ink. Her work has been exhibited at institutions such as the Hong Kong Museum of Art, and she has attained various awards including Friends of the Art Museum Prize and Ramon Woon Creative Prize.
