There aren't any grown-ups. We shall have to look after ourselves.' These are the words of William Golding from 'Lord of the Flies,' the backdrop to this piece. It depicts the childlike exhilaration that washes over you when you first drop into a wave.
Ciel Glue's retro-inspired surf art complements any home, cafe, shop, or space that appreciates vintage art and design, surf culture, or contemporary home decor. Whether you're yearning for the waves of last summer, revamping your space with vintage-style decor, or simply looking to infuse tropical surf vibes into your surroundings, Ciel Glue's collage is a personal and fitting addition to your walls.
I take great pleasure in finding these images of vintage surfers, their lives destined to the closed pages of a dusty magazine at the back of a library and rescuing them from their dark, eternal fate. Bringing them back to the ocean and placing them on the waves of their life. Giving back to them that feeling of the first drop in.
My line of creation resides around the sentence; “To read the wave". Click for more Ciel Glue.
