Hōʻike ʻo VANESSA DAWS i kāna hanana lehulehu hou.
Moe au ma kuʻu kua a lana i ka waiʻeleʻele; puni iaʻu e hehi ka poʻe ʻauʻau i ka wai a me ka bob. Ma kahi mamao aku, ʻike wau i kahi huakaʻi lōʻihi o ka poʻe e hāpai ana i kahi lākana o nā ipukukui a me nā mea kai; hele lākou ma mua o ka paia polū nui kahi e hoʻouluulu nei kahi lio ʻeleʻele, makaʻu e hele i loko o ka moku a lawe ʻia aku mai ka mokupuni. Peahi mai la na mea kai.
ʻO 'Beyond Islands' kahi hanana i ka wā i komo ai i Skerries, County Dublin, ma ka 21 ʻOkakopa 2019. ʻO ia ka hanana nui loa i loko o kahi mauʻauʻau aʻu i hana ai i nā makahiki i hala aku nei, i a ma kahi o Lambay Island, ma ke ʻano he ʻāpana. o kahi papahana kiʻi hoʻonui ʻia.1 ʻImi kaʻu hana hana noʻeau ma o ka ʻauʻau ʻana - kahi o nā wahi wai i hoʻokele a ʻau ʻia, ka wahi littoral e hoʻopuni ana, a me ka wahi kaiaulu i hoʻokumu ʻia e kēia hana like. ʻO ka ʻauʻau ʻana, ka huakaʻi, ka hālāwai ʻana a me ke kamaʻilio ʻana nā mea hoʻomaka no kaʻu mau papahana. Ke wehewehe nei wau i kaʻu kaʻina hana ma ke ʻano he 'Psychoswimography' - kahi e heʻe ana i ka wai a noʻonoʻo hou i kahi.
Ua lawe ʻo 'Beyond Islands' i ka poʻe i kahi huakaʻi, me nā poʻe komo e koho ana e huakaʻi i ka ʻāina (e hele wāwae ana) a i ʻole i ka wai (ʻauʻau). Ma ke ala, ua hālāwai ka lehulehu i nā hana a me nā heluhelu ʻana i nā ʻikena i hoʻoili ʻia a me nā archival, nā wikiō a me nā hoʻolālā kiʻi, nā kiʻi hoʻomālamalama hoʻomālamalama ʻia a me ka paia o ke aka nui. Ua hoʻomaka ka hanana ma ke kai kūʻono ma ka Strand Hema i ka napoo ʻana o ka lā. Ma hope o kahi hoʻolauna e ka mea haʻi moʻolelo, ʻo Rosaleen Ní Shúilleabháin, ua hoʻokaʻawale nā ʻauʻauʻau a me nā mea hele wāwae, me Rosaleen e alakaʻi nei i nā mea hele wāwae. Ua ukali ka poʻe ʻauʻau i kahi pā o ka hoʻomālamalama ʻia, e hoʻomālamalama ana i nā jellyfish i ke kai, kahi i kū ai lākou i kahi hana a ka mea ʻauʻau kai lōkahi, ʻo Aoife Drumm.
I kēia manawa, halawai nā mea hele me Ian Fleming, ʻaʻano i loko o kahi puʻu limu, nāna i heluhelu ka 'King Fish', i hoʻololi ʻia mai Mōʻaukala Kūlohelohe o Lambay, i kākau ʻia e Robert Francis Scharff, ʻo ia kekahi o ka huakaʻi Praeger i hala i ke kauwela e noiʻi ana i nā pua a me nā holoholona o Lambay i ka makahiki 1907. ʻO kā Scharff huaʻōlelo e wehewehe nei i ka loaʻa ʻana o ka King Fish ma kahakai o Lambay, a pehea kēia iʻa liʻiliʻi a nani hoʻi. hiki ke ʻike ʻia ma ka Hale Hōʻikeʻike Mōʻaukala o Dublin, ʻoiai ua nalowale kona ʻano kālā, i kēia manawa ʻoi aku ka ʻalani brownish-melemele o ka varnish kahiko.2 Ua heluhelu ʻo Dominic Gilmore i kēia ʻōlelo like i ka poʻe ʻauʻau mai ka Currach ni Sceirí, i hoʻomālamalama ʻia e ka ipukukui King Fish nani, i hana ʻia e Carol Martin mai Skerries. Ma hope aku, ma hope o ka hala ʻana o ka poʻe hele wāwae i ka paia o ke aka nui, ua heluhelu ʻo Emer McLoughlin i kahi huaʻōlelo i kākau ʻia e aʻu, ʻoiai ke ʻike ʻia nā ʻauʻau ʻana e hele aʻe ana. ʻO ka huakaʻi hope loa no ka poʻe hele wāwae a me nā ʻauʻau kai ʻo The Springers Bathing Area, kahi hale hālāwai maoli. Ma nā Springers, 50 mau mika i waho o kahi moku ma luna o ka wai, mele ʻo Landless (kahi hui kūikawā i nā leʻaleʻa ʻehā mau hapa me ka hapa ʻole) ʻO Ramparts Kūʻē i ka Uncharity, kahi 'siren shanty' i kākau ʻia e ka lālā Landless ʻo Ruth Clinton no ka papahana.2 Ua hīmeni ʻo Landless ma ke ʻano he 'leo o Lambay', e like me ka sirena, kāhea i ka mea hoʻolohe e huli i nā ʻōuli o ka hāʻule o ke kaolaola. Hoʻomaopopo ka mele i nā pilikia o ka hana ʻana pēlā. Ua hoʻolohe ka poʻe ʻauʻau i ka lana ʻana i loko o ka wai, a hoʻolohe ka poʻe holoholo mai kai.
Hoʻomaka kaʻu mau papa hana kiʻi me ka ʻauʻau ʻana i loko o ke kino o ka wai aʻu e hoihoi nei. ʻO kēia ʻano ʻano hana noiʻi noʻeau e ʻae ai i kahi ʻano o ka ʻae. Ma mua o ke komo ʻana i loko o ka wai, kamaʻilio wau me nā ʻauʻau kai kūloko e pili ana i kahi maikaʻi e komo ai a puka a pehea ke ʻano o ke kai. ʻIke wau i kaʻauʻau ʻana ma ke ʻano he hana kaiaulu a ʻo nā ʻauʻauʻau kahi mea koʻikoʻi o kaʻu papahana. Aia ʻo Springers ma Red Island, kahi tombolo e ʻoki ʻia e ke kai kiʻekiʻe, ma mua o ka hoʻomohala ʻia ʻana, a me kahi ala i kūkulu ʻia ma ke ʻāpana o ke kaona ʻo Skerries. Hiki ke ʻike ʻia ʻo Lambay mai nā Springers. ʻO ka mea nui i nā Springers ka Skerry Frosties, kahi hui o nā ʻauʻau kai kūloko e hui pū i kēlā me kēia lā ma kēia pūnaewele no ka ʻauʻau holoʻokoʻa makahiki. Uaʻauʻau au me ka Frosties no nā makahiki he nui a aloha i ko lākou ikaika, pili aloha a me ka ʻakaʻaka nui.
I ka wā o ka hana ʻana o 'Beyond Islands', ʻo ka lōʻihi o koʻu lilo ʻana i Skerry, ʻo ka nui o ka hōʻuluʻulu ʻana o ka papahana, i hoʻoulu ʻia e ka hoihoi a me ke kākoʻo mai ke kaiāulu. ʻAʻole hiki ke hana ʻia ka papahana me ka ʻole o kēia makemake maikaʻi āpau. ʻO Teddy's Shed - kahi hale kaʻa nui ma hope o ka hale o Teddy a me Aisling - ua hāʻawi manawaleʻa ʻia no ka hana a me ka mālama ʻana i nā kiʻi a me nā ipukukui. Ua kōkua wau i nā papa hana hana ipukukui me ka Skerry Foróige, Prosper Fingal a me Skerries Mills.
No ka hapa nui o kaʻu mau papahana noʻeau, ʻo wau wale nō ka mea hoʻonohonoho, luna hoʻomalu a me nā mea hana. ʻO 'Beyond Islands' kahi papahana nui a koʻikoʻi aʻu i hana ai a hiki i kēia lā, a he aʻo aʻo nui ia, e hoʻāʻo ana e hoʻokele i ka lipine ʻula, nā loiloi, nā ʻae a me nā kaʻina hana palekana no nā hanana i ka lehulehu - i ʻoi aku ka paʻakikī ma o ka ka ʻauʻau ma hope o ka pōʻele, a me nā mea hoʻokani pila i waho o ka wai. Ua hana wau me Swim Ireland i ka palekana a me ka ʻinikua no ka ʻauʻau ʻana i ka pō. Ma ke ʻano he lālā o CREATE, he ʻinikua mea pena kaʻu me JLT ʻIlani, e uhi ana i nā kuleana o ka lehulehu, e kūʻai ʻia ana ma kahi o € 250 i kēlā me kēia makahiki. Ua loaʻa iaʻu kahi ʻae mai ka Fingal County Council no kahi hanana lehulehu a alakaʻi i kahi loiloi pilikia. Ua kū mai kahi pilikia i ka manawa a ka hui aʻu i hoʻonohonoho ai e hoʻolako i nā pontoons i haʻi iaʻu (lohi i ka lā) ʻaʻohe mea i ʻinikua maoli ʻia ma luna o lākou. Ua alo wau i laila (ʻelua pule ma mua o ka hanana) me ka hoʻāʻo ʻana e loaʻa i kekahi e hōʻoia i ka ʻāhinahina ma waena o ka ʻāina a me ka wai. Ma hope o ka nui o nā leka uila a me nā kelepona, mahalo ua hoʻohui ʻo JLT i kēia koi i kaʻu kulekele.
Ua hoʻolālā ʻia ʻo 'Beyond Islands' ma ka lā 7 ʻOkakopa 2019, akā he mau manaʻo ʻokoʻa ko ka Hurricane Lorenzo, no laila pono wau e hoʻololi i ka lā i 21 ʻOkakopa e kiʻi i kahi manawa a me ke kiʻekiʻe o ke kai. Eia naʻe, i ka pō, ua maikaʻi ke aniau. Hāʻawi ʻo Skerries Sea Scouts iā mākou i kahi uhi palekana kayak, ʻo Carol Finlay lāua ʻo Kinny mai Swim Ireland i mālama palekana i ka ʻauʻau ʻana o ka pō. Ua hōʻaiʻē ʻo ILDSA iā mākou e lana ana i nā lana, a aia kekahi mau hana mana loa o ka lā hope loa, e like me ka pahu lio o Geraldine i hōʻike ʻole ʻia, e kōkua i ka neʻe ʻana i nā kiʻi āpau. Ma luna o 100 mau kānaka o nā makahiki āpau i komo, me kekahi e huakaʻi mai ana a hiki i Belfast. ʻOluʻolu wau i nā hālāwai kūkā e hiki ai i ka hana i ka lehulehu ke ʻae, e like me ka holo ʻana o ka poʻe a i ʻole ke hele wāwae ʻana i kā lākou ʻīlio i ʻike maka ʻole ʻia i kahi hanana kiʻi.
He mea pena kiʻi ʻo Vanessa Daws ma Dublin. Ua kākoʻo kālā ʻia ʻo 'Beyond Islands' e ka Arts Council of Ireland. E ʻimi ana kāna papahana ʻauʻau hou aʻe i ka Channel English, ma hope o kāna hoʻāʻo ʻauʻau ʻana iho ma Channel. Ma loko o kēia papahana e hoʻopili i nā hanana ola a me kahi hōʻike huakaʻi.
Notes
1 Ua ʻauʻau au ma Low Rock, Malahide, i kēlā me kēia pule mai ka neʻe ʻana i Dublin i ka makahiki 2011. ʻEwalu mau kilomita mai Low Rock, ʻo ia ka Lambay Island ponoʻī nona, a no kahi ʻauʻau, he lure kahi mokupuni.
