Story, art and science: three ways of looking at the challenges facing our planet.
Let storyteller Marion Leeper and illustrator Tonka Uzu take you on a timeless journey to a remote atoll in the Pacific Ocean to meet Sky Mother and her handsome sons. Watch the pictures come alive on a big screen as Tonka draws in response to the story. And then share with us your ideas, questions and reflections inspired by this traditional story, its message and its values, guided by the expert knowledge of environmental scientists Manar Alsaif and Elil Hoole.
Digital live drawing meets the oral storytelling tradition in this engaging and thought-provoking audio-visual performance that will touch a chord in the heart of any adventurers and nature lovers in the audience. An event for adults and children to engage in together on equal terms.
