The Prinx of Provocation.
Chiyo is the unorthodox embodiment of Royalty navigating the UK cabaret scene. Their work manages to be sensual, endearing, powerful, and yet professionally executed. Regularly performing alongside platforms like The Cocoa Butter Club, Chiyo also produces their own smut night called “WOOF: Redefining Sexy”. Their work constantly dismantles gate-keeping and unnecessary yet ever-so-present barriers QTPOC face when navigating the “queer” community.
Though preferring the term “Prinx”, Chiyo has been shortlisted for multiple “Best Drag King” awards, awards for originality, and their work has been showcased in exhibitions across Europe.
Remaining palatable, when not delivering raw spoken word or executing intense performances pieces, Chiyo is touring the UK delivering upbeat high intensity Queerlesque routines.
Committed to his brand of “Redefining Sexy”, Chiyo is a regular guest dancer at London’s first LGBTQIA+ Strip Club, Harpies, and constantly hopping between Queer spaces to Gogo for the late night crowds."
Join us in December for a week of work from the Artist in Residence, with installations and Private View from 16th December.
