Fox Whitney

(he/him) - Performer in 8

Fox Whitney is a multi-disciplinary artist working at the intersection of dance, sound, video, theater, writing and visual art. Fox is obsessed with the surreal nature of transformation. His projects center his queer and transgender point of view. His current work is a psychedelic blend of performance, autobiography and metafiction inspired by films like Fellini’s 81/2 and Sun Ra’s Space is the Place as well as Seattle’s queer nightlife + punk + indie music scene, QT art history and his experience as an anarchistic director, performer and producer.

Fox’s work has been commissioned and produced by the Henry Art Gallery; On the Boards; Velocity Dance Center; Seattle International Dance Festival; Yellow Fish Epic Durational Performance Festival and was selected for the inaugural season of Seattle’s Gay City Arts. Light Aloud has played at Trans Pride Seattle, Capitol Hill Block Party and the Seattle Art Fair. He has exhibited his short films and visual art nationally. Fox is also a teaching artist and arts journalist currently writing for SeattleDances and Variable West. He was the Artistic Director of Velocity Dance Center from 2020-2022. @fox_whitney_
