The water that flows through me
a sensory show designed especially for babiestodos os públicos . 00h30A gentle immersion into the essence of the element that has accompanied life since its very first breath.
In this creation, water is not merely a substance: it is origin, pulse, lullaby, and discovery. Through it, the child revisits, in a subtle and poetic way, their primordial connection to the world.
The dramaturgy arises from the stages of transformation. Everything breathes; everything moves to the rhythm and sound of the universe of water. Animated forms unfold before the watchful eyes of the little ones, inviting them to explore textures, movements, and glimmers that evoke the womb—a place where water is both shelter and communication. The music envelops the space like a continuous, gentle, and welcoming wave, guiding sensations and sparking curiosity. Organic sounds, tones, and rhythms interact with the light, which emerges as a reflection, as a discovery.
And there is the water—a living presence, carefully incorporated—that appears as a gesture, as a dance, as a metaphor for growth. It flows, evaporates, transforms, and becomes play and poetry. It is through water that the child is invited to recognize the world, to feel their body, and to discover the relationship between themselves and the environment that surrounds them.
This performance is an experience of sensitivity and contemplation. A first encounter with art that respects each baby’s pace and celebrates the power of a universal language: that of water, which flows through us all.

This category of projects brings together a set of artistic proposals aimed at young audiences, as well as families, school groups, or private audiences.We consider artistic creation designed to educate audiences to be fundamental, but above all we believe that every individual should have access to cultural enjoyment regardless of their age.
