BIO

Lindon Shimizu, a japanese brazilian born in Porto Alegre, Brazil and raised in Japan, currently based

in Joensuu, Finland. He works as a dance artist in theatre, dance and video field and as somatic

movement educator. He holds a theatre license degree from UERGS, Brazil. He has worked for many

years with the Brazilian dance director Dani Lima, being part of research projects with dance pieces

as “100 gesture” and “little collection of everything” presented around Brazil and Japan between

2011 to 2016. Currently, he is creating his own solo performance in collaboration with the dance

artist Dasha Lavrennikov supported by Zodiak and directing the dancer Tuija Lappalainen in Birongitai

(ビロンギタイ) project in collaboration with ITAK. He is interested in the dialogue of an ethical-

aesthetical-political-body as a strategy of being and creating, playing between liquids and membrane,

contents and container, creating in between. He is interested in what he refers to as a “migratory

body”, a perspective of creating from the place of an immigrant artist.
