The STOKED! Art Film Series is a abstract vignette of images of unique beaches through the eyes of Eric Minh Swenson. These landscapes are captured from the sublime to dystopian. These small places, intimate to many, yet a world to others, are timeless stretches of sand and ocean that ebb and flow beyond the life of man. They are the demarcation of life above ground and the abyss of the unknown. These beaches, beautiful as they are are and accessible to many, stand as safe havens for some, and stark infinity for others. These films hope to document the serene to environmental impact to a bygone civilization. STOKED! is a new film series by Eric Minh Swenson, director of Mana, that celebrates the spirit and love for California's beaches and passion for its heralded surfing culture. The series keeps in the tradition of preserving the rich heritage of Southern California's beach lifestyle which continues to influence art and culture throughout the world.
STOKED! is an open invitation to all beach-going enthusiasts and surfers to participate at pre-scheduled events throughout the year and various locations along California's coastline. The series of films will be posted online as the continuing Take 1 Art Series by EMS as part of the film survey that documents the art world throughout California.
Continue to look for social media updates throughout the year.
