Born in 1996 in Chongqing, China. Tielin Ding is a flâneur, observer and interdisciplinary artist based in NYC whose diverse practice involves working with playful objects, indeterminate traces and movements to create performative actions. His application of the methodology of “Mapping” and “Walking” gives him more opportunity to reflect on invisible systems within urban and natural spaces.  Influenced by 1960s' Fluxus and Mono-ha movement, he has been very interested in drifting in the field of language and space, risking getting lost from point A to point B. He received a Bachelor of Engineering in civil engineering from Beijing University of Civil Engineering and Architecture in 2018 and is now studying for an MFA degree in Photography and Related Media at Parsons School of Design.
