Nathan is a queer, immigrant, and abolitionist artist and organizer whose work explores queer futurism, world-making, and liberation. Born in Hong Kong and based in Los Angeles, Nathan uses photography, installations, and social practice to challenge systems of oppression and create spaces of freedom. Their work centers queer joy, the radical act of creating "home" and "family," and the potential to imagine new worlds beyond borders and institutions.

Holding an MA in Latin American Studies from UCLA and currently pursuing an MFA at CalArts, Nathan’s practice is shaped by their experiences as an undocumented queer immigrant and political organizer. They view art as a tool for abolition—envisioning futures where systems affirm life, love, and collective care. Their work is informed by years of organizing in labor, immigrant rights, and housing justice, with roles at the United Auto Workers, California Immigrant Policy Center, and Housing Now! California.

Nathan’s influences include queer futurism, abolitionist thought, and radical visionaries, as well as experiences in nightlife and club culture, where joy, resistance, and belonging intersect. Through their art, Nathan seeks to create new possibilities for living, loving, and organizing, contributing to social movements and the ongoing struggle for freedom and collective liberation.
