TIFFANIE TING

Tiffanie Ting (b. Vancouver, Canada) was raised in Vancouver and received her B.A. with Honours in art history and psychology at the University of Toronto. She then went on to receive a Master of Education in art and museum education, and Doctor of Education in culture, communities and education, both at Harvard University. In recent years, she has had exhibitions in Hong Kong and the US and has received numerous research and teaching awards. She says about her landscape oil paintings, “I aim to construct views of specific locations that manifest as vaguely familiar but curiously vacant. They become mere backdrops without the action and meaning we ascribe to them through our lived experience. In other words, we need people and relationships to complete the scene. I hope my paintings invite you to consider these ideas in conversation with your own experiences and sentiments.”
