Hiroaki Umeda performing in assimilating

Renowned for his “virtuoso melding of technology and movement” (Scotland Herald), choreographer and performer Hiroaki Umeda redefines the boundaries of dance and performance with his inventive use of multiple video projections and immersive sound art. A true interdisciplinary force — choreographer, dancer, and designer of audio, image, and lighting — Umeda creates high-velocity, visually stunning experiences that blur the line between installation and live performance. Following riveting performances in 2019, his thrilling fusion of body, light, and sound returns to OZ Arts with two internationally acclaimed multimedia works: his stunning solo assimilating is a high-octane visual spectacle, and his cinematic group work Moving State 1 highlights five female Hip-hop performers from his influential Somatic Field Project.
