Cord
How do babies end up in the belly? What is this thread that is attached to the baby? What is it called? Is it for the baby to hold on to? How was I born?
These and other questions are part of a child's curiosity.
A seed that grows and changes.
A heart that beats.
Two arms that embrace the world.
Two eyes that open and a song that is heard.
It's the cord of life, the cord that tells your story and ours, and that accumulates stories from other lives. This cord has no end.
Fértil Cultural
Fértil arose from the encounter between theatre and anthropology, two ways of looking at human beings as producers of culture and questioning their living conditions. The association was founded in 2010 with the aim of giving voice to creations and research based on this principle. Fértil's creations are essentially based on theatre and its relationship with other artistic forms.
Theatre is par excellence the laboratory where our work can be experimented with. By giving priority to original creations, it allows us as creators to take a better approach to the most diverse themes and to adapt them to our purpose, as well as to affirm the artists involved. This is where we express ourselves and share our thoughts with others.
The object of Fértil's work - art, education, and culture - is the basis for the development of all human beings, regardless of their ethnicity or culture. These three points are horizontal and belong to all of us in a non-hierarchical format. Believing in everyone's abilities, Fértil aims to develop its work in a symbiotic form of giving, sharing its knowledge and learning from the knowledge of others.
