Björk referred to her concert tour “Cornucopia”, which lasted from 2019 to 2023. The route, although not associated with a specific album, referred to the subject of the album “Utopia” from 2017. It was a production of theatrical momentum, and at the same time the artist’s most ambitious undertaking so far.
The narrative of concerts focused on environmental problems. Björk encouraged the audience to think about contemporary challenges, such as the Parisian agreement on the climate from which the United States withdrew some time ago.
The artist emphasizes that we live in times when we must think about the future and actively act. Björk believes that the key is the cooperation of nature and technology, and humanity has a chance to find a golden mean.
Optimism in the face of climate change. Björk surprises faith in the future
Although many people perceive climate change as a threat, Björk believes that we cannot give up. According to her, it is important to gradually adapt goals and take actions that will bring measurable results. The artist believes that future generations will find new ways for ecological life.
“There have always been apocalypse. We had Noah and the Flood, we had a plague. There was always this narrative, and now I think that the point is to be active and be part of the solution. And also have the courage to imagine the future and be in it, be it. Inspire your work locally in your community or in any way you think you can change something. “
Björk has been involved in social affairs since 2007, when she recorded the song “Declare Independence”. Initially, combining art with activism seemed absurd to her, but over time she convinced herself to this form of action. Today there is no doubt that music can be a powerful tool.
Björk critically refers to post -apocalyptic visions that promote nihilism and lack of hope. According to her, it is the worst thing we can do.
