I just saw these super cool designs of the Norse gods from a theatrical interpretation of the Poetic Edda. The play is a mixture of Swedish folk music, dance, and Peking opera. If you’re interested in checking it out, I think you can watch it here, but it is of course in Swedish.The Poetic Edda is a collection of Old Norse poems about gods, heroes, the creation of the world and its coming end. The play starts with Odin resurrecting a dead völva (seeress) and asking her about things in the past and things that will happen in the future.Photos taken by Håkan Larsson. -- source link
