Katja Esser and Ricardo Frota, with their unique inspirational skills, bring a deeper appreciation to nature. Through the use of sound, movement, poetry, costume and mask, they create powerful visual and sound imageries. The audience is transported into another realm. Katja works with images that imitate and transform nature. Through her mask and costume, she gives shape to the spirit of the tree, and she becomes the tree. The poetry provides clues about the life of a tree. Ricardo works with the actual pieces of trees as well as natural and recycled objects. He lets their spirit speak by giving them voice. The audience is invited to contribute in imaginative ways to the complex sounds and life of the forest.

Let yourself to be taken on this journey and to be awed by the wonders and wisdom of our planet.
