Lukas has performed the works of Sidi Larbi Cherkaoui and Maxine Doyle at the Banff Centre and Springboard Danse Montreal. His choreography is shaped by embodiment, physics, and languages. He has choreographed ambient sets, music videos, and films for Sam Slater (Joker OST), LBT, and Luke Slater. Flowmentum, his movement practice, is driven by social dialogue and physics embodiment using sight and touch. He has taught in Toronto, Berlin, Munich, Slovakia, and Mexico City. He is currently screening his film, Takeoff, with Jubal Battisti across international film festivals, touring a contemporary duet Face to Face with Naishi Wang, and researching Momentum Contingency: a solo kinetic sculpture installation featuring wind machines.
