Sùlaire | Gannet - Sheila Quillin

Thàinig am pìos seo, air a dhèanamh à fiodh craoibh-abran, bhon chuimhne a th’ agam air a bhith aig obair air an Jean de la Lune, ‘s mi shuas air crann na luinge, fo na creagan, àird na sùla ris na sùlairean. B’ iongantach an fhuaim, agus a bhith gam faicinn an sgaoth.

 

This piece, made from laburnum, came from the memory I have of working on the Jean de la Lune and being up the mast, under the cliffs, at eye level with the gannets. The noise was extraordinary, and seeing them in formation was incredible.
