The show comprises stroboscopics effects inadvisable for pregnant women, epileptic people or ones who have pace maker.
Tokyo-based multi-disciplinary artist Hiroaki Umeda presents two hypnotic works that fuse motion with astonishing sonic and light-scapes. One of Japan’s most exciting experimental artists, Umeda mixes his own unique technique and digital technology to create multi-sensory works at once minimal and provocative.
"Hiroaki Umeda moved as if electric currents were rippling through his seemingly bone-less limbs.. [with] speed, precision, minute inflections of rhythm and angle - right down to his very fingertips" -Mary Brennan, The Herald
“Engaging…Like a tin man with oil flowing freely through his veins, Umeda mirrors the pulsating score with an accumulation of motion” - New York Times
