Tosom, an artist duo working across poetry, prose and music, brings gaia to Taastrup. The concert explores how humans relate to nature in an age shaped by the climate crisis and a sense of having drifted away from it.
The show takes its starting point in Ferdinand Ahm Krag's two-part work Transfiguration of Matter I & II. Where nature was once revered as a living power, like the goddess Gaia, human exploitation of the earth's resources has turned it into something to be used. Gaia asks what that shift means for us now and what it might mean in the future.
Text and music support each other but also stand on their own within the performance, in keeping with the duo's aim of breaking down the boundaries between art forms.
