Elder Mother is inspired by a Hans Christian Andersen fairy tale, the Elder-Tree-Mother. The boy in the story meets the Elder-Tree-Mother, who sits atop an Elder-Tree that grew out of the teapot next to his bed (in his dream). She speaks with him, and they go on many adventures and explorations over time. She gathers memories and shared experiences. She illuminates and night and provides shade during the day. Come and listen to her story.
