Home is a place that reminds us of the warmth of our mother’s embrace. A safe space where we feel protected. Home is a sense of groundedness. It is a feeling we try to establish each time we migrate. In this durational performance, author-performers Bojana Robinson (SRB/SLO) and Gyula Cserepes (SRB/HU), explore cultural identity through cross-border migration. They were born and raised in former Yugoslavia, before moving to other European countries. Even though Bojana lives in Slovenia and Gyula is based in France, they both recognise how they share the same roots. Their curiosity arises from this mutual identity of starting their lives as Yugoslavs. The duo explores questions such as: what are the customs and traditions that shape our identity? What happens to them when we settle in a new environment? How do the new experiences shape our sense of identity further? How could we actually talk about identity? Seagulls Fly Early is based on movement and anthropological research. The movement material is derived from a simple triola step. Through the performance, the two performers constantly transform this motif. Their walking choreography is a conversion of folk dances from the Carpathian and Balkan regions. Using these motifs, Bojana and Gyula create a performance that migrates itself: it is a constantly emerging happening of becoming. The anthropological research is based on interviews with various ethnic minorities. Seagulls Fly Early features the personal stories of both performers along with stories they collected during the creation. They continue this research each time they perform in a new place. Using this method the performance can always connect to the local environment, yet migrate over borders. Seagulls Fly Early invites audiences to join the journey. Bojana and Gyula want to hold a space where the audience could reflect on their own culture and identity. Furthermore, the performance wants to explore the challenge of putting down roots over and over again. Seagulls Fly Early is a dance of constant transition of ever changing identities. A dance of grounding in the search of a personal cultural history. During the performance, the audience is invited to come and go any time they feel like it.
