Statement
Jiaying Ding is a London-based artist working with installations, sculptures, and performances. She is interested in creating autonomous artworks that have their unique space-time disciplines.

forces in life that we are in and not in control of. There is a persistent tension within her work showing an inner conflict that gestures towards transformation.

current postgraduate at Goldsmiths (MFA., 2024). The artist finds inspirations from her
physical experiences and theatre. She is fascinated by the critical distance between the
