Olivia Ting is fascinated by the dichotomy of a medium that can be simultaneously documentary and fictional. Memory is never recalled with crystal precision the way a photograph of video is perceived as a recorder of facts. there are always edges to a scenario in memories that fade or blur and linger in a state of malleable fluidity. In her video work, she explores memory reconstruction; the layered composition of the photo and video collages allow for concealing and revealing of the mortar of time and space and rearranging them according to emotional logic. Olivia has done design work for San Francisco Dance Center, San Francisco Performances, Kunst-Stoff, Brooklyn Children’s Museum, Johnson & Johnson, Olgilvy & Mather, and Nokia, among others.
