Mary Ting is a visual artist working in installation, drawing, sculpture, and community projects that examine cultural history, grief, nature, environmental and social justice.

She is also faculty at The Transart Institute MFA Program, New York/Berlin. The crazed ravaging of the earth, the displacement of vulnerable communities and pending extinctions is what keeps her up at night and also awakens her in the morning.

She has presented at the Asia for Animals Kathmandu 2017, On Changing Human Behavior at the Jane Goodall Institute, Nepal; UC Davis, Donkey Welfare Symposium 2018; Thinking Animals 2018, St. Catherines, Ontario and at the Explorer's Club, NYC 2019.
