Liana Fu 傅嘉恩 is a queer writer and zinemaker from Chicago. She studied creative writing and critical race & ethnic studies at the University of Chicago. As a multidisciplinary artist inspired by the Cantonese diasporic archive, she plays with photography, collage, and printmaking to explore intimacy, process, and nostalgia. Her writing is supported by Lambda Literary, Tin House, and the Chicago Literary Club. Her current project, Blueprint of a Burning House, was longlisted for the Granum Foundation Prize and shortlisted for the Disquiet Prize. She received residencies from Monson Arts, the Ragdale Foundation, the Virginia Center for the Creative Arts, and Northeastern Illinois University.
