2017 : A quick sketch -
This summer I am participating in two Arts Fringe Festivals both on Islands - one 'on the fringes' of England at Ventnor on the Isle of Wight and the other 'on the fringes ' of Portugal ' [and Europe] on Pico Island at the Azores Fringe Arts Festival.
The synchronicity of this opportunity I have found fascinating after discovering that the Portuguese poet Raul Brandao gave the Azorean Islands colour references -- and Pico Island he named 'Ilha Preto' , 'Isle of Black ' -- after the black volcanic mountain and landscape that crowns the Island.
This has also been a small but intriging coincidence in relation to a childhood growing up on the 'Isle of Wight', where my fascination in Lepidoptera began - and as [is] with this habit, the discovery of an endemic species to the Azores the 'Hipparchia azorina' the 'Azorean Grayling' butterfly --

the separatness of Islands
is an illusion'
