Here, we review our recent efforts in controlling the flow of light using polaritonic excitations in 2D materials. In the far-field, the general constitutive materials response of 2D materials, in conjunction with metasurface approaches, can potentially enable arbitrary control of phase, amplitude, polarization of light. In the near field, these polaritons can also exhibit unusual hyperbolic and chiral propagations, leading to rays-like optics and non-reciprocal light flow.
