Bryoni Trezise is the author of two monographs, a co-edited collection and numerous articles, all of which use the disciplinary lens of performance to ask questions about contemporary culture. Her research spans the construction of cultural memories through analysis of archives, museums and memorials and, more recently, the staging of contemporary childhoods in digital media. Bryoni was awarded a State Library NSW Fellowship for her research into migrant oral histories and has won the Marlis Thiersch and the Forum for Modern Language Studies prizes for her interdisciplinary scholarship in theatrical, literary and media histories. A leading member of UNSW’s Arts and Health Research Group, the Intermedial Composition Network and Children’s and Youth Research Network, Bryoni’s current research maps ecologies of creative thinking and creative care – creative literacies – forthcoming in a co-authored book and podcast series How to Play in Slow Time (2025). Bryoni is also highly invested in championing creative pedagogies for wide-ranging careers: she has been awarded teaching prizes for this work and is currently conducting an impact study with Shopfront Youth Arts on models of creative leadership for young people. This builds on the impact work she previously conducted for Regional Arts NSW involving data sets on arts participation and regional economies, including the ABS. Bryoni has published over 40 reviews for RealTime Arts, The Conversation and The Canberra Times and has been interviewed by ABC Radio. Most recently, Bryoni was awarded the Charlotte Waring Award and a Varuna Fellowship for development of her YA and middle grade novels.
