Performance by S20 Hiroaki Umeda
In Umeda’s works, all components on stage – bodies, lights, and sound – are treated as equivalent means of expression based on his post-anthropocentric perspective. In Holistic Strata, all the elements are dissolved into the same information units (pixel) and, by doing so, Umeda searches for an “axiom of kinetic movements” that exists as a common denominator of all movements.
