About Lana
Lana Hosni (b. 1989) is a Zagreb based dance artist and vocalist. After graduating from SEAD
(Salzburg Experimental Academy of Dance) in 2013, she has been making her own work and
performing in the works of other artists such as Matej Kejžar, Sonja Pregrad, Marko Gutić
Mižimakov, Selma Banich, Naomi Brand, BADco., Marjana Krajač, Irma Omerzo, Bruno Isaković,
Zrinka Šimičić Mihanović, Mila Pavičević, Zrinka Užbinec, Costas Kekis, Douglas Jung and others.
Continuously interested in body-voice connection, since 2020 she annually organizes a project
GLASNO PITANJE – Somatic laboratory for voice matters , an explorational-educational program
which brings together artists with an interest in movement, body, somatic practice, voice work (in
the vocal or a broader sense) and self-education.
Since 2020 guest teacher at the Dance Department of the Academy of Dramatic Arts in Zagreb.
2021-2022 as a member of the Croatian Dance Association board, she initiated several projects
within the local dance scene regarding the topics of mental health, burnouts, body shaming and
relation to pain and personal borders within the dance practices.
She collaborates with artists within the field of dance, theater, music, new media, hybrid practices.
She has been staring in few experimental films, vocalized for few soundtracks, performances and
album releases, went trough few singing collectives exploring traditional music heritage from ex-
Jugoslavia regions, worked on a feminist goat farm for a year and occasional leads a pop-up choir
WTFalsch – a falsch friendly collective singing gatherings in Zagreb.
For the last two years she has been researching on the locality of the contemporary dance scene in
Croatia having 1 on 1 sessions of structured conversation around prejudices, conditionings,
believes and unwritten rules that linger around while we operete in the field of dance. She is
continuously curious to see how do these repetative patterns, whether they are wanted or
unwanted, affect the ways we move, vocalize, embody, think or talk about dance and relate to
each other.
