Cass Li
Cass Li is an artist and writer with a creative documentary practice from Western Sydney, based on Dharug country. Her essayistic work, often drawing on her Chinese Timorese-Indonesian heritage, seeks connection in present and ancestral realities. Through film and photography, she explores the moving boundaries of insider/outsider across time, place, and memory. Her first film, the sign of a frog (2022), was screened at Antenna Documentary Film Festival.
In 2024, Cass developed conjunto não precisa chorar during a residency in Portugal, funded by AARTS and CreateNSW. Most recently, she has cultivated her practice through opportunities with CuriousWorks, WritingNSW, and National Young Writers Festival.
