Dandrogyny is a physical theatre practitioner, maker, performance artist, educator and graduate of the Victorian College of the Arts. Cat-walking the fine-eyeliner of the pop cultural and political, Daniel’s work can be defined as creatively chaotic and cathartic, often outing itself as homo-erratic.
Having performed in over twenty countries, highlights include working with ABC’s - You Can’t Ask That, Melbourne Festival (solo and with Taylor Mac), Melbourne Museum, Dance Massive, Arts House, Sydney Opera House, Bollywood Film, Opera Australia, Honcho Disko ( hosting Brooke Candy & Amanda Lepore ), Dark MOFO's Blacklist Party, Gaytimes Festival ( and many other Queer Parties ), SWAY, (former Strange Fruit Productions), Circus Oz, All the Queens Men, Shelley Lasica, Deanne Butterworth, Joel Bray, Phillip Adams Balletlab, Rafael Bonachela and Kylie Minogue.
Through dance and experimental performance art, Daniel has created solid prominence within 'so-called Australia’s' queer ecology with character DANDROGYNY.
‘Drodge’ at their core, playfully calls us to notice the performed nature of hyper masculinity and its toxic implications. Daniel is currently creating NED KYLIE a theatrical slur exploring Aussie iconography, queering national treasures and exploring “Australian” fragilities through Performance Art.
Dandrogyny is a proud, defiant, charismatic, subversive party favourite who, with fierce [hi]-visibility leaves a neon trial of desire on every dance floor, ALWAYS!
