Through dance, choreography and design, ALLISON LANG is exploring her curiosities around expanding on limits of softness, responding to politics of the body, and investigating the surreal within the human experience as a way to imagine new systems.

Informed by her professional experience in creative processes and performance with Kokoro Dance (2023-2024), Ballet Edmonton (2019-2022), Ballet Kelowna (2017-2019), The National Ballet of Canada (2016), as well as foundational training as a graduate of Canada’s National Ballet School, Allison is approaching their work in dialogue with what choreography and negotiations exist in our day to day; within our internal ecosystems and as a settler on Coast Salish lands (Vancouver, British Columbia).

She is one half of studio lang, a collective created in 2024 with twin sister, Emma Lang as a container to expand on their artistic practice in interdisciplinary tandem. Primarily engaging in work through prose, movement and performance art, studio lang’s debut project, Survival-Length, was presented at 48H Neukölln Festival in Berlin, June 2023. Currently studio lang is developing Silk Oil, a performance art piece initially created in residency at Odd Meridian Arts with funding from The Canada Council for the Arts.

I acknowledge that I learn, create and share as a settler on stolen ancestral land that rightfully belongs to the Sḵwx̱wú7mesh (Squamish), Stó:lō and Səl̓ílwətaʔ/Selilwitulh (Tsleil-Waututh) and xʷməθkʷəy̓əm (Musqueam) Nations in so-called "Vancouver, British Columbia". As a settler on these lands, I stand in solidarity with Indigenous sovereignty.
