In the spirit of a Lee Friedlander or Ed Ruscha photograph, Daniel Fuller’s photographs, whether taken in Hawaii, Tahiti or Sumatra, show both sides of what it means to seek out the “extreme” in surfing. In this piece, Fuller captures an early morning scene with a star streaked sky. The steady solitude of a cool desert night contrasts with his constant quest to ride the biggest and most powerful wave ever seen. These epic feats of daring and physical skill usually occur in far-off places where there is no witness; places like Bali, The Maldives or some remote pipeline break off Tahiti called Teahupo’o. The sensual allure of the blue sky and sea reminds us of just how minuscule and insignificant we are to the broader context of the universe.
