Ljusets hjärta

▷ trailer

Ljusets hjärta (Heart of Light) is Annas’ story. There’s no narrative, nothing she wants you to understand, but her story is still present. Together with yours. 

In the depth of a secluded water reservoir Ljusets hjärta unfolds. Down in the darkness, you will meet a rare acoustic, through only one song. Darkness and light are mixed in this fantasy world, where the stars are shining upside-down. 

Ljusets hjärta is not a performance, but an exploration. You as a visitor are free to create your own story, your own experience and interpretation, and let it coexist with Annas.

Through the exploration you get to meet your story, from a unique perspective, in the underground reservoir. Later you get to hear Anna’s story and have an opportunity to share what only you encountered.

How many stories can come from the same experience?
