About the project
Sivri is a seagull that is part of the Aboriginal culture's dream time. Sivri taught the first humans the gift and joy of dancing, the drum, the music and the dances. Sivri is an important myth, as the Aboriginal people use songs to relive the time of dreams. The songs of the ancestors' creation are kept in the memory of the aborigines, since each one of them receives, at birth, some measures of all creation, in this way the song is perpetuated. These bars of the song are called 'Ensueños'.
The seagull is a symbol of freedom, and also of eternal free time to enjoy it, without worries of any kind. It is the totem of those who want that. Free time to enjoy life, the distant horizon and freedom. Ideal totem for sailors, poets, artists because they are free spirits and it gives them inspiration from the sea.
