NICOLEE

Born and raised in Hong Kong, Nicolee is a London based filmmaker and writer who works across music videos, branded content, and narrative shorts. Her practice attempts to investigate notions of culture, identity, and experience unique to the underrepresented communities; fusing storytelling, dance performances, and electronic sounds where collaborations become an integral part of her working process. From the images and narrative she creates, whether it's rich colours, textures or nuances - she often borrows from her sensory memories of growing up in Hong Kong. Behind the skyscrapers, neon lit alleyways, and perfectly aligned pastel estates, there are stories and depths of griminess which she finds strangely charming, romantic, and reminiscent in her current work. Her ambition is to change representation in front of and behind the camera; by bringing underrepresented communities to the forefront and mainstream. Telling stories unique to their experiences and bridging the East and West to celebrate cultural differences that connect us as a collective.
