ABOUT ME

Catherine Li is a Hongkongese artivist, musician and model, whose creative work focuses on freedom and human rights. She is also affiliated with the group Hong Kong Aid that offers assistance and immigration advice to Hongkongers in the UK.
 

She has recently completed her second MA for Actor Musicianship at Rose Bruford College, London, an international drama school. She completed her first MA (Theatre & Performance Studies) at King’s College London in 2020 and BA (English) at the Chinese University of Hong Kong in 2018. Her cover of the song “Glory to Hong Kong”, a protest anthem of the Hong Kong pro-democracy movement, has received 1M views on YouTube and is on the Hong Kong government’s banned list of songs.

 

Since 2019, she has been regularly creating pro-democracy performances to raise awareness for Hong Kong in the UK and Europe. As an advocate and the co-founder of Hong Kong Aid CIC, she has also been actively working on campaigns to advocate for the rights of the Hong Kong diaspora and the oppression of the Chinese Communist Party on both community and international levels, and organising groups and events within the UK-Hong Kong community, which has now grown to a population of near 180,000 across the UK.

Her recent work includes organising the first UK-Hong Kong Summit, curating Hong Kong-themed arts exhibitions, performing pro-democracy songs in UK and Europe human rights events, submitting a report on the freedom of expression for the UN's 2024 Universal Periodic Review on China, writing and performing her first solo actor-musician show “In an Alternate Universe, I Don’t Want to Live in the UK”.
