Surf Tribe
Surf Tribe by photographer Stephan Vanfleteren. In Surf Tribe Vanfleteren shows there is far more to surf culture than just sport and competition. Surfing is about a deep admiration and respect for the ocean and a the feeling of insignificance surfers feel when confronted with the forces of nature.
Vanfleteren looks beyond the traditional locations of California and Hawaii and searches the globe for people who live in places where the sea and land meet. He documents a fluid community where nature is the sole leader. Beautiful coffee table book filled with over 300 serene black and white portraits revealing the real person behind the surfer.
