Lillian Ross-Millard**** (Toronto, Canada, 1993) is an artist based in Glasgow and Toronto. Lillian makes performance-for-video amongst other things. Her toolkit includes writing, choreography, storytelling, painting, games, being playful and other people. Lillian was raised by two theatre professionals, and had one grandmother and one great-grandmother who made their living in the performing arts. Her practice navigates performance as something inherited, an inevitability, and a key to survival. 

Taking on the family business, so-to-speak, Lillian began her training at an early age, and went on to train in the pedagogical lineage of Jacques Lecoq and Jerzy Grotowski (via Zuppa Theatre Co., Mario Biagini, Bad New Days, and Company of Wolves). Lillian has a BAH in Theatre Studies and Contemporary Philosophy, as well as an MFA from the Glasgow School of Art. She is currently engaged in a year-long residency with her friends and collaborators Anne White and Miranda Jones at LA SERRE – ART VIVANTS in Tiohtià:ke/Montréal, where they are developing Harmony Needs More Than One, an installation and durational performance. 

She will be performing a new solo performance, Halifax 1749/ 2014, at BUZZCUT Festival April 1-3 2025.

Lillian is represented by Vtape.
