Luci Young
Luci Young is an emerging artist based in Boorloo, with a background in dance and interest in creating communities through her work. She completed an Advanced Dip with PPY of Sydney Dance Company and currently in 3rd yr at WAAPA. She’s professionally worked with Co:3, GUTS DANCE, The Farm, WA Opera and STRUT Dance. Her training has taken her to India, and throughout Europe, most recently in collaboration with six international artists to create ‘Rage is Yellow’ in Bangalore. Luci currently co-facilitates Make-Shift Evenings, a local platform for experimentation and improvisational performance.
Luci is constantly falling in and out of love with the temporality of dance. She has developed a textile arts practice that complements her performance practice by offering a material outcome and promoting sustainable textile practices. She has found ways to use textiles to connect people through sustainable knitting workshops, activating event spaces with installations, designing costumes for dance performance and producing sustainable fashion for her brand Young 1. This is not the first commission Y1 is engaged in to bring her unique designs to the public, but it’s a very exciting point in her journey with Co3 Dance Australia.
