SUMMARY:assimilating and Moving State 1
DESCRIPTION:Hiroaki Umeda’s choreography and eye for digital design have been celebrated throughout Europe\, Asia\, South America and the U.S.\nCritically acclaimed for his almost impossibly fluid movement style bordering on street dance – subtle\, radical\, and provocative – his dance pieces frequently synthesize ultramodern video\, dramatic lighting and crackling soundscapes as interlocking components interacting with moving bodies on stage. Now\, this slick avant-garde mastermind brings a double bill of his latest cutting-edge projects from Tokyo to Philadelphia. \nMoving State 1\, performed by four protege female dancers from Umeda’s Somatic Field Project who have fully absorbed his sleek\, oiled movements and assimilating\, Umeda’s signature solo performance\, operate within a dance aesthetic where refined physicality merges with cyberart. \nThe U.S. five-city tour of Hiroaki Umeda: assimilating and Moving State 1 is produced and organized by Japan Society\, with support from Arts Council Tokyo (Creation Grant) and The Harkness Foundation for Dance. \nPresented in association with the Japan America Society of Greater Philadelphia as part of the lead up to The 2026 Subaru Cherry Blossom Festival of Greater Philadelphia. \n“Engaging…  Like a tin man with oil flowing freely through his veins…” — The New York Times\n\n\n“Cool\, minimalist\, high-tech hip-hop…” — Infinite Body\, Eva Yaa Asantewaa
