SONNTAG aus LICHT

Sonntag aus Licht takes as its subject our solar system and the relationships of all the planets that orbit the sun. In this opera, the earth and life on it is represented as the result of the union of light and water. These two elements are presented in the first scene, and the rest of the opera celebrates the evolution of life, of plants, animals, humans, and above all this the planets, moons, and heavenly constellations. The opera has a pronounced ritualistic and meditative character, with very little that can be described as dramatic action.

of soil

Of Soil explore la relation entre les modèles de la nature etl’infini. La pièce est composée de fragments photographiques et d’éléments géométriques, disposés en motifs complexes résultant en un jeu kaléidoscopique ressemblant à une transe du soleil scintillant et de la lune noire, du paysage, de l’ombre et de la lumière, alors que le jour cède la place à la nuit.
