Jeffrey Choy is a writer and artist whose work interrogates censorship, propaganda, and populist consciousness in relation to colonisation and class disparity. His practice spans print, video arts, installations, and immersive media, with a strong focus on publication arts as a site of critical inquiry into knowledge production and distribution.
Jeffrey co-founded Hidden Keileon, an artist-led collective working with migrant and queer communities to imagine justice-driven futures through non-hierarchical collaboration.
His work invites the curious, the critical, and those seeking spaces for reflection and reimagination.

Umbrella Uprising
Protest arts archival project started by Jeffrey Choy, along with a team of London-based artists and activists. It aims to preserve and record artworks created throughout the Hong Kong Protests which started in June 2019., for the first 100 days of protests.
‘Umbrella Uprising: A Visual Documentation of the 2019 Hong Kong Protests’ was created to record this historical period through showcasing numerous artworks. It was crowdfunded on Kickstarter in 2020, partnering up with
distribution partnerships such as Marston Book which connects the project with bookstores like Waterstones and Foyles. The book was sold for 7000+ copies.
The profits are used to fund the remaining stages of this ongoing project, which includes: further developing and organising future artworks in order to support Hong Kong pro-democracy movement.
As
distribution partnerships
