Surfing is a sublime connection between nature, mind and body. The ocean takes us away from the clamour and over-stimulation of daily life, stripping things back to just us, our board, and the waves relentlessly rolling forward.

The experience of a solo surf can be deeply meditative, and it can force us to tune into our physicality, momentum and surroundings. Free from technology, our mind is still and all we can hear is the sound of our body and the coast.

season 01.
Season One was the start of something new and a glimpse into how James Midwinter views the world. It represents a period of change; a new set of ideas that have emerged through travels, conversations and creative experimentations.

Stepping into this new space, Season One reflects upon important elements of James’s life. Each image is significant - individually they record experiences, and together they tell a story. Kinship, solitude, emotions and connection are all important aspects of the work - which continually returns to the sea for peace and expansion.
