Artist Gerry Wedd, who is also a dedicated surfer, has long used the images of pioneering surf photographer John Witzig on his ceramic objects. Witzig's photographs of surfing in the 1960s and 70s now have the status of cultural icons, capturing surfing's "golden era". In this exhibition, four artists, who also happen to surf, have created new works in response to Witzig's extraordinary archive. Featuring Jon Campbell, Robert Moore, Gerry Wedd and Ozzie Wright, plus new work by John Witzig.
