At Nidos we artistically care for the authentic needs of babies, who, as exquisite spectators, give us the opportunity to rediscover the power of calmness and the essence of beauty

Nidos is an invitation for the whole family to experience art with all five senses. The show is dedicated to the unique moment of the first 18 months of life. We celebrate, in a calm and safe space, filled with beauty, music, scents, colors, and textures, the arrival of life in the form of a belly and heartbeat

From tenderness and play, we enjoy the discovery of the body, sounds, and the awakening of memories from our childhood. The creation has been supported by the dedicated work of mothers and fathers who live in the Wad-Ras and Brians 2 Penitentiary Centers.
