Coco Guo b.2000

(Close)

Coco Guo is a London-based interdisciplinary artist working across performance, moving image, installation, and choreographic theatre. She holds a BA in Fine Art from Chelsea College of Arts and an MFA from Goldsmiths, University of London, where she received the 2025 Goldsmiths Vice-Chancellor’s Award and was shortlisted for the Almacantar Studio Award. Her research-driven practice investigates choreography as a site for planetary thinking, queer kinship, and posthuman embodiment. Developed through interdisciplinary collaborations with scientists, laboratories, choreographers, and dancers, her work examines how bodily performance operates within ecological, technological, and more-than-human conditions.

Her practice is informed by new materialist feminism, speculative narration, queer ecology, and bodily research, often taking the form of immersive performance environments and cross-media installations. She has exhibited work in both China and the UK, collaborated with institutions including Changsha Museum and NAFI Nanjing Art Fair, and is currently collaborating with the feminist dance collective WomanEwer.

Alongside her artistic practice, she runs a Chinese-language public platform with nearly 90,000 readers, focusing on queer studies, feminism, matriarchal anthropology in China, and sociology.
