Shane Larson is a New York City-based movement and multimedia artist whose work explores the intersections of memory, identity, and physicality. Raised in Minnesota, he received his early training at the St. Paul Conservatory for Performing Artists under the direction of Maggie Bergeron before earning a BFA in Dance from NYU’s Tisch School of the Arts under full scholarship, with a minor in Child and Adolescent Mental Health Studies. He also studied at the Salzburg Experimental Academy of Dance in Austria.
Since moving to New York, Shane has collaborated across disciplines, working with punk musicians, filmmakers, improvisational music ensembles, and site-specific visual artists. In 2015, he joined the Bill T. Jones/Arnie Zane Company, where he has performed over 20 works nationally and internationally, and lead workshops and educational residencies across the country. He is also a recipient of a Bessie for outstanding choreography for his collaborative work in 2021’s Deep Blue Sea. In 2024 he was a fellow at Jacob’s Pillow for the inaugural Choreotech AI Lab.
Beyond movement, Shane is a passionate multimedia artist, using video and sound design to re-contextualize personal environments. His work often explores the play between emotion and perception, creating indeterminate visual and audio experiences that unravel and reconstruct states of feeling, imagination, and expectation
