Island Studies Journal, Vol. 8, No.1, 2013, pp. 39-54 Stepping-stones to the Edge: Artistic Expressions of Islandness in an Ocean of Islands Laurie Brinklow School of Geography and Environmental Studies University of Tasmania, Australia [email protected] Abstract: Since the earliest of times, islands have captured the artistic imagination—and, often, for the artist who finds his or her muse in being ‘islanded’, the smaller the island the better. Archipelagos offer an ideal setting for artists who take their inspiration from place: on small islands off islands they can experience an intensity of island living they might not otherwise have on a main island: boundedness and connection, isolation and community. This paper examines expressions of islandness by artists who live on islands off islands that are poles apart—‘archipelagos’ of the Canadian North Atlantic and the Great Southern Ocean. It draws upon interviews with those artists and writers to consider the nature of humans’ attachment and attraction to islands, exploring through the lens of phenomenology what Stratford et al. call the “entanglement between and among islands”. Keywords : archipelagos; artists; Bruny Island; Fogo Island; Grey Islands; insularity; islandness; Newfoundland; resilience; Tasmania © 2013 Institute of Island Studies, University of Prince Edward Island, Canada. Introduction Thank God we’re surrounded by water… —Tom Cahill, folk singer, Newfoundland and Labrador The allure of islands goes back to the most ancient of times. “The importance of islands,” writes geographer Yi-Fu Tuan (1974, p. 118), “lies in the imaginative realm. Many of the world’s cosmogonies, we have seen, begin with the watery chaos: land, when it appears, is necessarily an island”.

Dawe - Newfoundland Project Coordinators: Don Hogan (ACOA); Robert Greenwood (Department of Development and Rural Renewal, Government of Newfoundland and Labrador) Assistant Researcher(s): Field Log: Twillingate is located on two islands, the north and south islands, at the entrance to Notre Dame Bay on the northeast coast of the island portion of the province of Newfoundland and Labrador. It is accessed by Route 340 from Lewisporte, just off the Trans Canada Highway, in the central portion of Newfoundland. Because of its geographical location, the Twillingate area is renown for its harsh weather conditions and the extremes of the natural environment have shaped the economic and social milieu of the area. Its verbal and written history are riddled with tales of the daring and courage of its sea captains and fishermen and the hardiness and endurance of its people. This field work was conducted in early December and I was fortunate to have arrived in the area on a particularly bright and sunny day. Not having visited the area for ten years, and never having visited Twillingate itself, I took advantage of the weather and used the first day to acquaint myself with the area.

Comments submitted by The Pew Charitable Trusts on behalf of 8,164 members of the public John K. Bullard Northeast Regional Administrator, NOAA Fisheries Greater Atlantic Regional Office 55 Great Republic Drive Gloucester, MA 01930 Christopher M. Moore Executive Director Mid-Atlantic Fishery Management Council 800 N. State St., Suite 201 Dover, DE 19901 Thomas A. Nies Executive Director New England Fishery Management Council 50 Water Street, Mill 2 Newburyport, MA 01950 Dear Messrs. Bullard, Moore, and Nies: I am writing to request that all midwater trawl vessels be required to carry a federal observer on every herring and mackerel trip, without exception, and that you move forward without further delay in the development of the Omnibus Observer Coverage Amendment for the Northeast. Improved monitoring of this industrial fleet is long overdue, and the amendment should be advanced immediately so that the fishing industry can contribute to the management of its use of public resources no later than fishing year 2015. Midwater trawl vessels target Atlantic herring and mackerel, but we know that they catch a significant number of severely depleted river herring and shad, and juvenile haddock which are taken as bycatch. Comprehensive observer coverage (with no waivers or loopholes) is necessary to document the high volume of marine life and its make up that is caught by these industrial vessels, ensure compliance with fisheries rules including catch caps and dumping restrictions, and improve the science that provides the foundation of effective management. In June 2012, both the New England and Mid-Atlantic councils voted for 100-percent observer coverage on midwater trawl trips (in Amendments 5 and 14).
