History

Suelo Fértil workshops started with Colombian women in London, in collaboration with the writer, film maker and mindfulness trainer Patricia Díaz.

Suelo Fértil performance started as an artistic piece developed by artist and researcher Ximena Alarcón who was commissioned by UNESCO México "Arte en Tránsito" in May 2016. The piece and the process brought together eight migrant women living in Mexico, the UK, US and Linz. A second performance was commissioned by Radio Centro de Cultura Digital in July 2016, and the project is consolidating as an artistic collective.

Collaborators

Suelo Fértil workshops have counted on generous support from Patricia Díaz, and Angélica Quintero.
