Ebony Muller
Dr Ebony Muller is a performance artist, researcher and sessional academic at Deakin University, where they completed their Ph.D. in 2022. Based in Naarm (Melbourne), they are of Sri Lankan, Greek and Albanian descent. Their research centres on feminist care ethics, disability politics and philosophies of slowness in creative practice and performance, specializing in dance/movement improvisation. This interest is sustained by their embodied experience as a queer, disabled and racialized person, which enacts implicitly, but forcefully, in their work. 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, utilizing movement and sound(ing) to induce the cathartic or ecstatic in their work. They are currently a research assistant on the ARC-funded project, ‘The Ideologies and Practices of Anti-Racism in Australia’, led by researchers at The University of Sydney and Deakin University.
