| dc.description.abstract | This interview was held with Yukichi Hattori who moved at the age of thirteen from his home in Japan to Germany to attend the Hamburg Ballet School. Hattori joined the Hamburg Ballet Company as an apprentice soon becoming a soloist with the company. In 2006 he moved to the Alberta Ballet where he recently held a principal role in an Elton John inspired ballet called "Love Lies Bleeding." In this interview, Hattori discusses his journey as a dancer, the struggles he faces as a 5’3” Asian male dancer, as well as the future plans as both a choreographer and teacher. A main theme he addresses is the role of the artist in the world at large. He claims that an artist’s role is to learn of the interests and to inspire younger generations. What Yukichi is trying to pass on is a way to live, a way to approach the world, and to make change through whatever inspires you. | en_US |
