Ryuichi Fujimura is an independent dance artist of Japanese origin based in Sydney, Australia. Since the mid-1990s, he has studied contemporary dance, improvisation and choreography both in Australia and overseas. Over the past two decades, he has collaborated with a wide range of emerging and established artists across dance, theatre, opera, site-specific performance and film. He has performed in works by a range of artists and companies including Xavier Le Roy, De Quincey Co., Force Majeure, La Fura dels Baus, Clockfire Theatre Co., Alan Schacher, Vicki Van Hout, and Justin Shoulder among others. Ryuichi began his choreographic practice in 2014 and has since created a number of live performance works including his HERE NOW Trilogy. In recent years, his practice has expanded to include interdisciplinary collaborations with artists from diverse fields, such as Mel O’Callaghan, Alicia Frankovich and Justene Williams.

In 2024, he developed Pink Regenesis of the Curse in collaboration with WeiZen Ho for EDGE Inner West at White Bay Power Station for the Biennale of Sydney 2024 in April, and performed in Today I feel a soft breeze, a 24-hour dance marathon for Bleach* Festival on the Gold Coast in August.
