A house slowly turns into a forest. Roots crawl up, furniture disappears and the ground underfoot becomes softer and softer. In this poetic and musical performance, a family gets lost among trees, memories and emotions, while from the depths sounds a mysterious melody.

I believe I am a little lost. A forest is growing in our house. The walls have already disappeared among the trees and our furniture is sinking deeper and deeper into the ground. Mom can't dance anymore and Dad tells me not to worry.

This morning I found a blue seed. Maybe I'll plant it. The moss is so soft. If I lie down here, everything will work itself out. The ground holds me firmly and caresses my back.

Sometimes I hear something from the depths, like a big heart beating. The forest breathes in and out. Someone sings my name, but I cannot answer. Slowly I sink away.

Ground Tones is about a family lost in the forest. The ground beneath their feet is shaky, but from the depths sounds music. A large forest creature rises from the earth and follows them among the trees, invisible until emotions run too high.
