HeriTrav News − Rugby's heritage

Heritage

Celebrating rugby

H

eriTrav celebrated heritage with valuable rugby jerseys in the Wellington Town Hall on Tuesday 7 December 2021. The idea came when HeriTrav met Ivan Abrahams and he told his story about his collection of rugby jerseys and the players he remains friends with, whom he received them from. On a Wellington stoep, the idea to exhibit them birthed and the initiative was realized.

The event started at 18:00 and Ivan Abrahams, whom the jerseys belongs to, opened the event with his Banjo – ‘Joy to the world!’ was the first song he played and the party began.

Introduction by HeriTrav: “HeriTrav honors the heritage of rugby in an arts and culture capacity. This honoring project is an ongoing process, with diverse activities and projects right through to 2022 which starts with a display of priceless rugby jerseys. This display consists of the viewing of an extensive collection of valuable rugby jerseys owned by one man, here in Wellington – Ivan Abrahams. We also celebrate the 2019 rugby world cup victory.

“This display emphasise the power of the people’s support towards rugby as fans and communities. HeriTrav wants to show the relationship between the two, we also want to show that rugby is one of the greatest methods-tools-mediumplatforms to unite all races, social classes and identities (heritage).Rugby is a powerful transformation tool in societies.”

“

We need these stories to be reminded of who we are and where we come from.”

This man is an example of rugby’s heritage/(outcomes of rugby) with his invaluable stories, experience and knowledge of rugby, the players, the games, the records, the stadiums.

And his own story, which flows into every story he tells about rugby – making it a part of his heritage.

We need these stories to be reminded of who we are and where we come from, so that we do not forget when a time of negativity, like the 2020 Pandemic, comes to discourage us and damps our spirits. Stories like these keep our spirits burning with pride and joy. Boland Rugby is a part of South Africa’s heritage, birthed right here in Wellington – Just like Ivan.

Peter spent 30 years traveling internationally as a Port Engineer, throughout the Caribbean, Japan, the South and North Americas, His writings navigate through a wide variety of marine/oceanrelated topics, and observations about nature.

W

ater covers 75% of the earth’s surface, and the 5 major oceans that make up this planet including the newest, ‘Southern Ocean’, create 221 225 miles (356 000km) of ocean coastline shared between 202 countries, (54 countries are fully landlocked), meaning 8 billion people inhabit 25% of the earth’s surface, 4.8 billion (60%) of which live within 60 miles (97km) of the coast. 35 million (½ of 1%) of the world’s population are ‘people-of-the-water’, who live ‘on’ boats full-time and do not own a home or land ashore (as do I with my wife of 53 years and our ship’s cat). Our boat, the Motor Vessel “So…fea” is 40 feet L (12.2m) x 13 feet W (4m) 500 sq. foot (46.5 sq. m) of living space.

While working and traveling in the marine trades for 30+ years, and living on boats in the Caribbean and Americas, we fortunately were exposed to other full-time liveaboard experiences. Having built the first 310 foot (94.5m) MotherShip F/V Reefer Star for Starkist Foods plus three 97 foot (29.5m) fishing vessels for the Japanese Government, as well as lived aboard while refurbishing the 175 foot (53.3m) Cruise Ship M/V Big Flamingo berthed in Florida which ultimately headed to St. Thomas Virgin Islands.

There’s a great difference between week-ending on a boat and ‘living’ aboard full-time which requires the same things you need on-shore. Whether berthed at the dock or in cruising mode, the So…fea still has 100 amp 240 volt AC power, 60 pounds water pressure, 30 gallons hot water, 5 electric heaters, a wood burning stove and 4 burner cook stove, 16 cu. Ft. refrigerator (0.45 cu. m) 10 cu. Ft. freezer (0.28 cu. m), 4-chair dinette, washer/dryer, wi-fi, 60-inch TV, computer desks, a queen-size bed, 2 bathrooms, (heads), a small shop, full galley, and a 12 x 12 (4m x 4m) picnic area on the 2nd deck, as well as a private sunbathing area on the upper bridge, plus solar and wind power as backup to her generator.

“

After years in the tropics, we retired aboard the “So..fea” which is now berthed in the Port of Siuslaw.”

The Pacific Northwest is a tempestuous coastline, nicknamed the ‘graveyard of the Pacific’, where approximately 3 thousand ships met their fate in the 363 mile (584km) long rugged Oregon Coast via extremely high winds, very heavy seas, and 100+ inches (255cm) of annual rainfall.

After years in the tropics, we retired aboard the “So..fea” which is now berthed in the Port of Siuslaw about ½ way down the coast on a protected brackish estuary in a historic logging and fishing harbor originally settled by the French, Russian and Spaniard explorers. The town of Florence, Oregon has 20,000 people, a hospital, supermarkets, bus service, banks, post office, hardware, and other shopping all within walking distance of the harbor we call home.

‘Boat people’ have existed quietly for thousands of years (long before Ancient Greece), in 2022 the ‘narrow boaters’ of great Britain, ‘bargees’ of France and Holland number in the thousands, at Tonl Sap Lake near Siem Reap in Cambodia more than 170 floating villages and 80 000 inhabitants live on boats with fully functional water streets, floating schools, shops and clinics, Tam Giang, Vietnam has 10 000 Sampans housing 100 000 people as year-round family live-aboards, the south Hong Kong/Macau/Aberdeen Tanka people number around 75 000, the 100 000 SamaBajau peoples, are a sea-based culture in the Philippines, Sabah, eastern Malaysia, Brunei, Indonesia, the Uros people and their floating islands on Lake Titicaca in Peru, and, the moken and Orang laut, a group of Malay people living in the Riau Islands of Indonesia. South American Amazon, and the San Francisco, Vancouver, Fort Lauderdale bayu/river/harbor/ canal colonies, plus those nomadic global sail boat ‘cruisers’ who only anchor out, also still continue the traditions.

Around the globe most liveaboard boats are around 50 foot x 12 (15.25m x 3.6m) wide, self powered, and remain in a near shore stationary state, with a 15 ft. (4.5m) smaller craft being used to fish, and move cargo. HT

The city of the god, Amon was the capital of Egypt during the period of the Middle and New Kingdoms. With the temples and palaces at Karnak and Luxor, and the necropolises of the Valley of the Kings and the Valley of the Queens, Thebes is a striking testimony to Egyptian civilisation at its height.

Located near the banks of the Nile river, stands the majestic monuments of ancient Thebes around the modern city of Luxor about 500km south of Cairo which represent upper Egypt. The monuments consist of the temples of Luxor and Karnak in the city, with a hugh Colossi of Memnon, temples of Deir al-Bahri, Medinat Habu and the concealed tombs of the Valleys of the Kings and Queens.

Artist feature − Joubert Stander

Your need is your

teacher!

by Stef Cupido

Featuring: Joubert Stander

Joubert Stander. After school Joubert studied Art and majored in Graphic Design. Upon completing his studies, he worked as a Graphic Designer at a printing company. He later moved to London (UK) for 8 months to clear his head and to think about his future. Upon his return to South Africa, he continued working as a Graphic Designer but art still ‘flowed’ in his veins and he attended art classes, under the leadership of Catharine de Bliquy. He now feels home and peaceful, and believes art should unlock conversations, ideas, and feelings.

movie, a series, a YouTube video or the faces of people. “Your need is your teacher.”

These words echo in every oil painting and art Joubert Stander creates , the words of the late Catharina de Bliquy whom he has learned richly from. Impacting his attention to detail and the patience to create every artwork, then recognizing its significance. By these truths, Joubert is inspired and continues to create.

He chooses to work small, for the challenge and the pleasure when it’s done. Focusing on miniature portraits and watercolour monotypes with oil, Joubert also picks up a more sizable paintbrush and has his way with bigger work.

His 81-year-old mother, Leonore Stander became a photographer during lockdown and worked with her son by taking pictures of the residents in her retirement complex, when he couldn’t. He needed characters for his miniature oil portraits for the 2020 Woordfees. It made them forget about the pandemic for a moment and all was well.

These days Joubert accepts commissions, although it can create a bit of anxiety, it is good practice for his artistic eye and helps him notice colours and fine details easier. Joubert mostly paints unfamiliar faces and people, he titles them, describing the circumstances he sees.

Hermien Venter, a friend and fellow artist, taught him the watercolour monotype technique and “it is satisfying combining it with oil.” This technique and style rewards Joubert with so much freedom to create.

His husband Charl Loftie-Eaton loves art and supports Joubert in his artistic career, wherever it may journey to.

“He makes me feel safe.” They attend museums and art galleries everywhere they travel. Coming face to face with a masterpiece is incredible, It is a huge privilege and so rewarding to the muse. HT Charl and Joubert outside “Cheers” bar in Boston.

During the Covid-19 pandemic “mask” became one of the most frequently used words by people all over the world.

Themes like the wearing of masks, disguise, concealment, masquerading, safety, protection and freedom are explored in the exhibition.

“

Artists explore the phenomenon of masks during the worldwide pandemic.”

According to Anne-Ghrett Erasmus, curator at the Breytenbach Gallery, many people, including artists, are grappling with the fallout of disruptions caused by restrictions due to the pandemic. “The pandemic sneaked up on the world’s population like a thief in the night. Today the world resembles the eery reality of a science fiction movie. With this in mind, we invited artists to creatively explore the absurdity that characterises lockdown measures.” HT

Admission to the exhibition is free.

Francois Lötter van die Breytenbachsentrum, en Prof. Ronel de Goede, sameroeper van die Ingrid Jonker Poësieprys. Dit is vanjaar gewen deur Ryan Pedro.

Die Jonker-prys was aan digter, Ryan Pedro oorhandig vir sy debuut Pienk Ceramic Hondjies hierdie jaar.

Daniel Hugo het met Hannes Visser oor sy werk en sy erfenis gesels in die Mont du Toit Woord-tent.

Die Klyntji was bekendgestel en daar was gedigte en kortverhale gelees.

Belangrike uitgewers en Dagbreektrust se trust vir kultuur en erfenis het saamgewerk om die tiende ‘Tuin van Digters’ moontlik te maak – en die vibe hang steeds.

Dis ‘n goeie vibe waarvoor ‘Woordmakers’ sorg. Die blomprag in die tuin lei jou na ou woorde wat nuwe gevoelens maak en die waardering vir digkuns kap vas. Meer digdink ís nodig!

Uitstallings, toonsetters en bekendstellings het die tiende ‘Tuin van Digters’ afgerond en gegrond. Hoe lieflik wanneer woorde, kuns en guns jou atmosfeer is. HT

Die Woord-tent by die Tuin van Digters-fees is waar gesprekke oor die digkuns en met digters gewoonlik plaasvind. Dis vanjaar geborg deur Mont du Toit Kelder buite Wellington.

Positive affirmations to feed your body, mind and soul.

4. You are important, you are intelligent, you are free. Speak these words out loud to yourself every day.

5. When your mind is healthy and clear, your body can also benefit and stay healthy.

6. You are free to your own opinion. Even if no one agrees with it, it is yours and you matter.

7. You are special. There is no one like you.

8. You are a creative being. Every moment you live, you create.

9. Everyone has a purpose and a path in life.
