Description

Inspired by the work The Earth Gods by Khalil Gibran, the performance explores the relationship between human beings and the divine through a subtle sense of humour and irony towards power and human vanity. What is the relationship between humans and the divine? Who are the gods we believe in, the earthly gods of our time? Three “earth gods” observe humanity and engage in dialogue about its nature: decay, fragility, and desire. At the same time, a human stands before them, moving through a continuous process of conflict, worship, questioning, and acceptance. The performance combines live performance and visual art practice, creating a ritualistic stage environment in which body, natural materials, light, and decay are constantly transformed. At its core emerges love as an enduring force of relation and transformation—a presence that permeates tensions and silences, ultimately connecting the human being with themselves and the world.
