Acting

Olivia Wang

Olivia Wang (Chinese name: 王欧) is an award-winning Chinese–Australian actor, creator, and cross-cultural arts practitioner working across screen, theatre, and embodied performance. She is the recipient of 7 international Best Actress awards, with her work selected by 30+ international film festivals, and works bilingually across Chinese, Australian, and international contexts. Her artistic practice centres on migration, the body, identity, female subjectivity, and the emotional architecture of silence, evolving into what she defines as Embodied Migration Acting and Embodied Screen Acting — a body-led approach to screen performance that emphasises breath, rhythm, spatial behaviour, and physical presence as cinematic language. As a screen actor, Olivia Wang has won Actress in a Leading Role at the International Independent Film Awards, Best Actress awards at the Sweden Film Awards, Thilsri International Film Festival, Athvikvaruni International Film Festival, Rohip International Film Festival, MIFF, and Sittannavasal International Film Festival, and has been a finalist at the New York International Film Awards, Top Shorts Film Festival, Toronto International Nollywood Film Festival, and Independent Shorts Awards. Her breakout project Wake Her Up has been selected by 30 international film festivals across North America, Europe, Oceania, and Asia, significantly expanding her international recognition.
