A Naarm-based performer and maker and choreographer, Joel Bray is a proud Wiradjuri man and Artistic Director of Joel Bray Dance. His live performances and works for screen are participatory and immersive, centre the body, disrupt White audience assumptions about Bla(c)k art and create spaces for play and spontaneous community.
Joel’s works- Biladurang, Dharawungara, Daddy, Considerable Sexual License, Garabari, Giraru Galing Ganhagirri and Homo Pentecostus - have toured to major arts festivals and galleries in Australia and overseas. Joel has made works for the Malthouse Theatre, Artshouse, CHUNKY MOVE, Sydney Dance Company, the National Gallery of Australia and the National Gallery of Victoria.
