Mary Ting

Within Mary Ting’s varied art practice of installation, drawing, photography and video, the prevailing emphasis is the use of the fragment within a nonlinear narrative.  Her work inhabits the realm of temporality, private obsessions and the sensual.  Layered with stories, glimpses of memories, metaphors, her animals, figures, limbs, and cropped forms are both personal and allegorical.  Mary completed her MFA at the Vermont College of Fine Arts, is an avid gardener certified master composter and also a frequent lecturer, independent curator and writer. Mary Ting’s artwork has been exhibited extensively in the U.S. and abroad since 1986. Mary currently teaches sculpture, drawing and paper, 2D/3D, and Bookarts for Pratt Manhattan, SUNY at Nassau Community College and CUNY.  She lives and works in New York City. www.maryting.com
