My name is Kairo Urovi, I am a young artist based between London and Essex, who is part of the queer/non-binary community and is of Albanian descent. My work revolves around the complexities of that statement. Of being born and raised in Italy, with a family originally from Shkoder (Albania).
Through my work, I explore the idea of queering the archive and being at the intersections of identities - whether as an immigrant or as a transgender/queer person. Since studying and graduating from BA Photography at University of the Arts London in 2023, my work has been shown at Paris Photo 2023 with Carte Blanche Student Award, as well as Bazament Space in Tirana. I am currently attending Ph Museum's Folio Masterclass and developing my latest project into a photo book.
