Reproductive rights, it seems, has taken on new meaning in an era, especially with the restrictions of bodily autonomy for people with wombs mostly generated by the reactionary policies of conservatives in the United States and Europe. Fertile grounds is an encounter with having all the options to decide if, when, or how a person forms a family. This sonic exercise is a poetic, musical and historical interrogation of different modalities of reproduction and infertility, not just as a matter of public health, but as a way to understand that reproduction or the the refusal to reproduce should be freely available to people, no matter their reasons. Exciting a language of pleasure and liberation, might help us entrust people to have full autonomy of their bodies.
