【Hiroaki Umeda】
Hiroaki Umeda is a choreographer and a multidisciplinary artist recognised as one of the leading figures of the Japanese avant-garde art scene. Since the launch of his company S20, his subtle yet violent works such as Accumulated Layout (2008) and Holistic Strata (2011) have toured around the world. In 2009 Umeda commenced a choreographic project ’Superkinesis’ and started working with dancers of distinct physical backgrounds. Through this project he choreographed for companies such as GötenborgsOperans Danskompani and L.A Dance Project.
