The Moss: Mountains, Waters and Sky.

A celebration of the natural world incorporating cross art-forms: music, storytelling, book publication, theatre, dance, visual art, photography, film and audio broadcast.

 

Where the ancient past collides with the distant future in the circle of life.

 

Where folklore and established belief systems meet futuristic vision in collective attempt to understand the meaning of life.

 Colourful folk tales around raths, souterrains, and the cosmos will be examined in a different light.

 

The story will be related via a ficticious character who enters the moss [bog]and]  and doesn't return until many days later. The mystique of the moss is the focal point.

Music: a collaboration of traditional folk, contemporary and futuristic/electronic.
