Olivia Blaisdell is a Boston-based, multidisciplinary artist specializing in photography, videography, dance, and pole dance. Across all mediums, she borrows aspects of her personal identity as a queer, female-identifying, Asian-American woman, to highlight underrepresented voices in her communities. Olivia was born in Connecticut, but raised in Los Angeles, where she grew up studying dance at The Vonder Haar Center for the Performing Arts; she returned to the East Coast to attend high school at Walnut Hill School for the Arts. Olivia has also trained with Hubbard Street Dance Chicago, Joffrey Ballet School, and Central Pennsylvania Youth Ballet. Upon graduating Boston University with a BS in Health Sciences, she started her own business: Olivia Moon Photography/halfasianlens. Olivia currently dances with KAIROS Dance Theater, VLA Dance, and in various independent projects.
