About Artist
Saburo Teshigawara
Director, Choreographer, Artist, Lighting Designer
Born in 1953. He began his unique creative career in 1981. After forming KARAS in 1985 he sought to find new kinds of artistic expression that cannot be confined to the existing framework of dance. He is active worldwide. Due to his creative approach to transforming a space through light, sound, air and the body, his influence has been felt not only in the dance world but also on the art scene. Recently he has been directing opera to great acclaim. He has taught at Rikkyo University's College of Contemporary Psychology (Body Expression and Cinematic Arts course) since 2006.
