The first five images above are the final installment of the Protect Our Waves campaign. It depicts surfers preserved in specimen jars and explores the theme of extinction, highlighting the environmental issues that currently threaten UK waves. I’ve also added some of my other work. I hope you enjoy it.
I was thrilled when Surfers Against Sewage and M&C Saatchi approached me to create some innovative images for the Protect Our Waves campaign. Marine protection is an issue I care passionately about and I hope that my contribution will shine a light on the issues SAS is addressing to protect waves, oceans and beaches for everyone.
The ocean is one of man’s greatest natural resources and the delicate balance between preservation and destruction lies in the decisions that are being made now and the legislation that will protect the future.
I have had first hand experience living in areas where the raw sewage was being dumped and people had to choose between their health or enjoying the ocean. This is a decision that nobody should ever have to make.
