Gudirr Gudirr
T01080238822
Gudirr Gudirr calls a warning, the guwayi bird calls when the tide is turning - to miss the call is to drown. An intimate solo dance and video work performed by Dalisa Pigram, daughter of Broome. By turns hesitant, restless, resilient and angry, Gudirr Gudirr lights a path from a broken past through a fragile present and on to a future still in the making. The production considers the legacy of Australia's history for Aboriginal people in northwest Australia today and asks: what does it take to decolonise Aboriginal people's minds, to unlock doors and to face cultural change?
