Dr Ebony Muller is a dance and performance artist, researcher and academic working out of The University of Melbourne, RMIT University and Deakin University, where they completed their PhD in 2022. Based in Naarm (Melbourne), they are of Sri Lankan, Greek and Albanian descent. Their artistry-research centres on feminist care ethics and disability embodiments in creative practice and performance, specialising in dance/movement improvisation.
Ebony primarily develops and facilitates embodied improvised encounters – whether with or for performers, participants or audience. Their artistic work largely explores responsive behaviours and operations within these formats, utilising movement and sound(ing) to induce the cathartic or ecstatic in their work.
They are the Transgender and Disability Representative on the Australian Women and Gender Studies (AWGSA) executive committee. They are currently a Research Fellow on the ARC-funded project, The Ideologies and Practices of Anti-Racism in Australia, led by researchers at The University of Sydney, Deakin University and The University of Oxford.
