Melanie Lane

Melanie is an Australian choreographer and performer of European/Javanese heritage. She collaborates with artists from film, visual art, theatre and music, creating works that tread between performative forms and contexts. 

Her work interrogates physical and cultural histories to explore current social mythologies and extrapolates these into surreal futures that are confounded, broken and reconfigured. Her independent work has been presented at international festivals and theatres in Europe. USA, Indonesia and Australia. Melanie's many years of experience solidifies her expertise in contemporary dance through her work as a director, choreographer, performer and educator.
