U-ELLA DE BÚRCA UHLOLA UMBONISO KAYVONNE MCGUINESS WAKUTSHANJE we-SOLO KWIBUTLER GALLERY.
Ekungeneni kukaYvonne Umboniso kaMcGuinness e-Butler Gallery, ngokukhawuleza ndibhaptizwe kwihlabathi apho ixesha elidlulileyo, langoku, kunye nekamva limisela iindibano ezahlukeneyo kwi-symphony yokubona kunye nesandi. Lo mboniso, onesihloko esifanelekileyo 'uRehearsals', luphononongo lwengingqi lwemixholo eyahlukeneyo, ukusukela kuphuculo lwethiyetha kunye nomdlalo ukuya kuthethathethwano lwezopolitiko kunye nokuguquguquka kotshintsho eIreland. Le mibuzo ifakwe kwimisebenzi emibini emitsha yevidiyo: Eyona nto iphambili kwaye Ibala lesikolo, zombini zenziwe ngo-2023.
Amava okuvalelwa yinto ebalaseleyo, ekhumbuza iingoma zikaBrian Eno ezihlala ngaphakathi. Ingoma yesandi-enomxube wethowuni zamalungu, iintaka ezintyilozayo, abantwana abadlalayo, intswahla yezandla ekude, kunye nesithethi esiprofetayo esingaqondakaliyo - sithutha umbukeli kwindawo eyahlukileyo. I-audio ihlatywa yi-mantras emfutshane, nganye ithethwa kathathu - amabinzana abonisa ukungabikho kolawulo, umkhukula osondeleyo, kunye nokuwa.
Eyona nto iphambili lumboniso omkhulu wevidiyo ontywiliselwayo odlala ngeemvakalelo. Imbonakalo ethe kratya yelaphu elivuthuzayo emoyeni idala isiphithiphithi kunye nobuhle. Amalungu eNkampani yeTheatre ye-Equinox (indibano equkayo esekelwe kwiziko lobugcisa le-KCAT e-Callan) bahlanganisana kumabhodlo e-Callan Augustinian Priory, bamisela zemise-en-scène yezitulo kunye neqonga. Njengoko sisondela, izinto ezibonwayo ziya zinwebeka ngakumbi, kwaye sibona iqela lisebenza njengabaphulaphuli kwisithethi esiluzizi. I-echo kwi-soundtrack inamandla kangangokuthi iyayifihla ingxelo. Abaphulaphuli baye bangalawuleki, bewangawangisa iiflegi ezinemifanekiso yamatye, becula amabinzana anjengokuthi “Amanzi ayangena.” Abadlali abadityanisiweyo bayahlukana ngokwahlukeneyo, ngamnye ebonisa ubumoya bakhe, njengoko amandla eentetho zesithethi ephela.
Ibala lesikolo ibonisa umbono owahlukileyo, kodwa ohambelanayo. Apha, ukufakelwa kweetshaneli ezininzi zezikrini ezinobungakanani obahlukeneyo kubonisa itafile eshukumayo yabantwana abadlalayo. Kwesona sikrini sikhulu, sibabona bekhawuleza besakha 'umboniso', besebenzisa iintonga, iintambo, iplastiki kunye neseyile. Indalo yazo isikhumbuza ngemifanekiso yamaxesha aphakathi, ekrolwe kwiikona zezindlu zecawa, abantwana bemi ezitafileni, ezitulweni nakwiileli njengeengcwele nabaprofeti. Esi siqwenga siphawulwe kukuvaleka kwabantwana kwiimonitha ezincinci, becula amazwi anjengokuthi “Ayisalawuleki,” kwaye “Lumka, iza kuwa.” Imibala ye-Fluorescent - i-kaleidoscope ye-greens ecacileyo, i-pink, i-blues, i-yellows, kunye ne-orenji - ibonakalisa ukusuka kwizikrini, idala umphumo ophazamisayo.
Ngelixa zahlukile, ezi vidiyo zimbini zisebenza zabelana ngezinto ezixhalabisayo. Zombini zifana nomzekeliso, ziphinda i-Ireland yakudala, ngelixa zicebisa iindlela zokomoya kulwakhiwo kunye nobudlelwane obupheleleyo nomdlalo. Umbono we-eboding kuwo omabini amaqhekeza udibanisa umfanekiso we-apocalyptic wezikhukula zebhayibhile okanye ezinye iintlekele ezinxulumene nemozulu. Iqela elidala kwi Eyona nto iphambili ivakala ngesiporho, i-aura yoluntu, ingumbongo ibhekisa kumandla anciphayo ecawe eIreland. Ndothuswa ngamandla onqulo eqela elincinane leqela le-ad hoc, intsalela ye-Ireland yexesha elidluleyo lokuzibandeza lisabuyela kwizizukulwana ezitsha ngokwamanqanaba kunye ne-echoes. Omabini la maqela abhekisela kubume besithethe.
Into ebalulekileyo kumboniso kukusetyenziswa kweeflegi zesilika eziluhlaza, ezibonakala kuzo zombini iividiyo, ngelixa zikhoyo ngokwenyama kumboniso, njengenxalenye yokuhlanganiswa kwelaphu elikhulu, ukongeza into ebambekayo kunye nesiseko. Iiflegi zinemifanekiso yamatye ngokweendlela ezahlukeneyo; ezinye zidada kwisinye kwimvelaphi eluhlaza, ezinye zidityaniswe kwiiarches, cloister, kunye neentsika. Umbala oluhlaza ocacileyo awupheleli nje ekukhuliseni umboniso kwilifa lemveli lase-Ireland kodwa ukwasebenza njengomfanekiso oluhlaza wekhusi, ukhuthaza ukuqwalaselwa kwenkcubeko yase-Ireland njengento enokuthi ibekwe phezulu. Olu phawu luchukumisa ngakumbi xa kuqwalaselwa imixholo yenkolo neyomoya, kuphononongwa izimvo zokholo njengamandla asisiseko kunye nesakhelo sobuntu bomntu.
'Ukuziqhelanisa' luhambo olubonakalisayo, olubekwe kwindawo yomlingo phakathi komdlalo, ukuphuculwa, ilifa, kunye nelifa lemveli. Iquka imvakalelo yobulumko, ngokungathi iindawo ezingaphambili zenkcubeko yase-Ireland enyamalalayo, ngelixa kwangaxeshanye ityhala imida yokubonakalisa ubugcisa, ukutolika, kunye nentsebenziswano.
