Gabrielle Leah New is a multi-arts practitioner with an expanded performance practice working with wearable art, textiles, installation, photography, video and live/participatory performance to explore themes of identity, relationship to self, other and place, transformation and the space between internal and external worlds.
She is informed by her Butoh and Improvisation practices and works as a therapist, creating surreal, otherworldly, psychological landscapes. She uses her practice to open conversations about current socio-political-environmental issues through immersive art experiences.
Gabrielle completed a Masters of Fine Art with distinction at RMIT in 2014 and in 2015 completed a Graduate Certificate at Victorian College of the Arts in Art and Community Engagement and performs and exhibits regularly in Australia and Internationally.
