From his earliest work, dated to the late 1990s and inspired by the writings of Charles Fourier, an 18th - century utopian thinker, and the drawings of Henry Darger, an outsider artist and writer who produced a voluminous
illustrated manuscript about pre-pubescent Amazons leading a rebellion against
child abusers, Chan has been fascinated by the contrast between
ideal visions and the violent, sexually charged feelings and sensations that inspire them.
