to subtle interventions, and with a practice that is situated both within the gallery and the wider public realm, Chodzko's work explores the idea of collective imagination, investigating how the visual might catalyse new forms of engagement between people. His art proposes new relationships between our value and belief systems, examining their effect on our communal and private spaces and working with the documents and fictions that control, describe and guide these systems and spaces.

Chodzko's development of these ideas and processes later became consolidated into a body of work collectively titled ''Design for a Carnival'' (c. 2001–2007). This includes works such as ''Plan for a Spell'' (2001, a video exploring ritual within the British landscape through programming its image, subtitles and audio to randomly combine in order to release a potential 'spell' embedded within it); ''Settlement'' (2004, the legal purchase of a square foot of land as a gift to a stranger), ''Nightshift'' (2004, the tracking of a late night parade of nocturnal animals to the

Throughout these earlier works, and further explored in later works such as ''The Pickers''
(2009, the editing of a British film archive by a group of migrant Romanian strawberry pickers) and ''Ghost'' (2010, a kayak designed by Chodzko for "visiting the dead"), are investigations into processes of how memory, archiving, empathy, identification and the imaginary are shaped by the act of looking.

Place as a site which appears to exercise power and influence over the people who happen to occupy it is often explored through Chodzko's use of displacement, separating objects and images from their familiar and 'natural' time and situation in order to relocate them in the "wrong place" so that a change might be catalysed by that dislocation. A series of works entitled ''Better Scenery'' (2000–2002) sited pairs of mutually dependent billboard signs at various locations in the world giving travel directions to the location of the opposite sign. The ''Flasher'' works (1990-1996) were a series of one-minute videos, shot by Chodzko, documenting darkness being temporarily illuminated by marine distress-flares, with these sequences individually disseminated by adding them to the surplus tape following the credits of

, operating on both a conscious and unconscious (or even supernatural) level, has been a consistent theme in Chodzko's work, from the anticipation of digital social-networking communities in the ''Transmitter'' series (1990-) and ''The god Look-Alike Contest'' (1991) and more recently in the installation ''A Room for Laarni, Image Moderator'' (2013). This latter series of mixed-media works are based around the relationship and flow of images between a western European social-networking site (for teenagers) and an image moderator, based in the Philippines, whose job it is to monitor this flood of digital photographs, in order to flag up those whose contents might be deemed 'bad'.
''Deep Above'' (2015) and ''Rising'' (2013) expose a process of '
''making sense of imagery in relation to our collective and individual responses to the threat of climate change. These works speculate that, inadvertently, a repurposing of ‘art thinking’ might be the only way of short-circuiting the psychological paralysis (caused by our brains’ hardwiring) so that we might take action in order to avert climate change, while ''Sleepers'' (2016) explores our empathic projection when encountering the imagery of the unconsciousness of others. ''Channel, Rupture','' 2015 and ''Design for a Fold','' 2015, both continue Chodzko's speculations about the effects of flows of empathy across time and space and between the local and the remote. Many of Chodzko’s works evolve through this sense of projecting outwards from the self into the perception of, not only other people, but also the inanimate through migratory embodiments with objects, rooms, places, institutions, images. Recent works have continued explorations into the relationships between place (particularly the idea of ‘the garden’), perception, identity, mythology, ritual, language, the body and the unconscious (e.g.; ''A Hostile Environment'' (2019), ''Fluid Dynamics''; ''The Quail is Rising'' (2020), ''O, you happy roots, branch and mediatrix''
