Hi, I’m kyatos / Ang Kia Yee (she/her), a transdisciplinary life-form and worker operating across art, astrology, and spirituality.

I devise speculative, mutative fictions which offer tethers in mind, body, and spirit to alternative worlds, bodily states, systems, and relationships. I see such work as forms of adaptive radiation and oracular intervention.

Where possible, I use nonlinear and nonpathological frames of viewing and narrating the self, and illuminate the vitality & agency of nonhuman, inanimate, and/ or nonliving things. I aim to move intuitively and strategically to expand our shared vision of possible worlds and lives; to proliferate mystery and beauty; and to create spaces for self-inquiry, change, and release.

The fullness of life asks us to be here and now, and this is where I situate myself and my practice.

In art and writing, I like to make work that is mysterious, atmospheric, temporally-layered, and unknowing. Playing across disciplines, forms, and media, I operate using the logic of poetry — what Carl Phillips describes as patterned language and the meaningful interruption of those patterns.

My work has spanned poetry, essays, short stories, plays, performances, audio walks, workshops, and video. It also encompasses counselling work and astrology readings.

I was a resident artist for the 2025 AiR Programme at The Godown, Kuala Lumpur and the 2024 Residency at the Intercultural Theatre Institute; a participating artist for Natasha, Singapore Biennale 2022; and a resident writer for Centre 42’s New Scripts Residency 2021.

I recently founded a theatre collective called zone (境). I am the Co-Founder & was the Company Lead (2020-2024) of Feelers, a research lab of artists and designers focused on the intersections of art and technology. From 2015-2017, I co-founded and co-led theatre collective make/space.
