Grace White

Grace is a contemporary dance artist who seeks to live through and spread messages from the heart. Grace’s dance practice is deeply informed by an understanding of critical thinking.
Grace is fascinated by how movement has the potential to incite social change and touch hearts, with particular interests in ecological philosophy, feminism and gender studies, and embracing life with an open heart.

Grace’s solo dance work, Home is an Open Heart, was selected for the WAAPA X Bunbury Fringe Festival Graduate residency. Grace has collaborated with artists of all kinds, including, visual artists, actors, writers, animators, scenographers, and musicians; and she has most recently delved into the transdisciplinary practice of physical theatre and dance theatre.

Key works Grace has performed in thus far, include Chants de Marriage by Meryl Tankard (2022, Perth), A Surrender to Small Humanness by Ben Wright (2023, Berlin), All Bodies Just One Body by Gina Tay Limpus (2022, Brisbane), and in Sydney’s VIVID Festival with Unite Play Perform (2023). Grace performed in the IndepenDANCE Project with Phluxus2 Dance Collective in 2020, 2021, and 2022, and choreographed therein in 2023.
