It was the perfect picture of Southern California Seventies soul: high energy tribal contest, kids painting a psychedelic wall of art, hot sun beating down on a sheltered cove, and waves pouring through to the rhythm track of Sly and the Family Stone.

Hanging Five follows five artists who all happen to be surfers and looks at different aspects of their lives and how their experiences have impacted their art. The artists include Andy Davis, Tyler Warren, Julie Goldstein, Alex Knost, and Wolfgang Bloch.

It’s not uncommon to find artist Wolfgang Bloch rooting around in a dumpster outside of his kids’ school. “My kids laugh,” says Bloch, “But I don’t care, I go dumpster diving. I go to construction sites. I pick stuff up the side of the road. I’m always doing that.” –By Mike Fish
