GAIA, the primordial goddess of inexhaustible creator power, the divine force of the Earth, and the origin of life itself is the protagonist of this new journey. Mother of Sky and Sea, of Night and Day, she is the protagonist of a sharp lament, which continues the vocal-musical research of ErosAntEros, while at the same time entering into relation with a refined video device, that urges the audience not to remain indifferent to the past, the present and the future of our one and only common home: Gaia, the Earth.

According to a 1979 theory by James Lovelock that revolutionized ecology and environmental studies, the Earth is Gaia, a single living organism capable of self-regulating and responding to all those new and adverse factors that upset its natural balance.

At the first Chaos came to be, but next
wide-bosomed Gaia, the ever-sure foundations of all the deathless ones
