In one video, Qiu has erected a paper screen in front of which is a crowd of people is gathered. As they throw rocks at the screen, the viewer sees a shadow of Qiu, who is behind the screen, trying to avoid the impact of the stones as they fly in his direction.
Qiu's combination of traditional and modern, Eastern and Western has made him quite a controversial figure both within the art world and within China.
Qiu's risqué, multimedia works have come under criticism from the Chinese government.
"[The Chinese government] still regards art in the old way, as political, not as personal," Qiu said. "They think experimental art is so dangerous, so they start doing stupid things like canceling exhibits. It's just experimental art. It's not helping the United States, it's not helping Taiwan. It's just experimental art."
