Elysium

Elysium was a participatory and immersive theatre production staged in Stockholm during November and December 2025. It drew the audience into a world where the boundary between stage and auditorium dissolved, and visitors themselves became part of what unfolded.

I contributed artworks that were integrated into the production’s environment. One room brought together a large body of my work, while other pieces appeared throughout the world the audience moved through. Konrad L’Narte also created a site-specific artwork in wood for the production. The art became part of the overall experience alongside acting, set design, costumes, sound, lighting and digital elements.

The production explored ideals, possibilities and personal choices, and drew loosely on the story of Hades and Persephone.
