Conversation about our need for (Creation) stories
Trappscenen, Sara kulturhus, Skellefteå
Performed in swedish
In connection with Thomas Andersson's new performance When Our Lord made Bygdsiljum and all the rest, we have invited priest Susanne Dahl and religious psychologist Daniel Pettersson to a conversation about our need for (creation) stories to explain and understand the world and our place in existence.
Alongside stories about how the universe was created, the world religions also contain the creation stories guidance on how man should live his life. Based on some of the questions that Thomas Andersson asks in the performance, we discuss which stories guide us in today's secularized and individualized society? What is the importance of art in the form of, for example, music and poetry? What does it mean that we use nature as a spiritual space or that "we read nature as a book"?
