Doom & Bloom is a performance with four performers, a noise & pop duo and lighting design. The imaginary visions of the work that spring up from subjects such as destruction and rebirthing are intertwined in low frequencies, sharp screams and polyphonic vocals of the music.

The work is steered by dance artists Hanna Ahti, Anna Maria Häkkinen ja Maija Mustonen who share the stage with actor Niina Hosiasluoma, the lighting design of Jenni Pystynen and the music of An Tul (Saana Pohjonen ja Helena Pulkkinen)

Doom & Bloom premiered at Takomo Theatre in Helsinki 23.5.2023 and was performed at Drifts festival 2024.
