Chris Burkard is a self-taught photographer and artist, based in
Central Coast California, whose work is layered by surf, outdoor, lifestyle and
travel subjects. Burkard’s images are punctuated by energized landscapes and
moments of bliss, by adventure seeking and the lifestyle that ensues, by
movement and intuitive light-working capabilities. With the ocean as his main
muse, Burkard has consistently captured this subject in timeless and expansive
photographic impressions, utilizing the tool of surfing to approach the ocean’s
intricate personality and then extending out to include the human personalities
that draw meaning from this same source.
Searching for wild, remote destinations and offbeat
landscapes, Burkard portrays the humble placement of the human in contrast to
nature. At the age of 29, Burkard has established himself as a known name in
the surf and outdoor industries, accomplished a deep body of work, held staff and
senior photographer positions and has been recognized continually for his distinct creative
compositions.
