Where do we belong to if we are constructing our own identity? What are the songs, gestures, and stories we carry with us when we are elsewhere? What if home is not a place, but a practice of care in motion? Which new roots can hold us as we move?

Cantes de ida stems from community art as healing practice, and unfolds as a living, breathing encounter between people, memory, sound and movement. It begins as a nomadic, participatory installation — a shelter in motion — where people are invited to share fragments of their own lived experiences regarding migration, fugitivity and being elsewhere. These contributions, translated into embodied gestures and sounds, become the seed for interdisciplinary improv-based performances combining drums, voice, dance and pre-recorded media; a scenic piece that, like micelium, weaves together and nourishes our different roots — a collective act of remembering, listening, and belonging.
