Andy Hughes' work explores the accumulation of garbage washed up on the shores where he surfs. It is estimated that each year over 14 billion pounds of garbage and over 230 million plastic bottles are dumped into the world's oceans. Despite their ominous presence, these mass-produced items of plastic debris become for Hughes aesthetic forms within the open theater of the beach. By photographing every day products in such an environment, Hughes attempts to draw attention to the small scale, the unseen, and the pollutants of modern industrial consumerist society. The works in this collection are featured in his book, Dominant Wave Theory, published in 2006. The collection includes images from beaches in California - including Hermosa Beach, Los Angeles; West Beach, Santa Barbara; El Segundo Beach, Los Angeles; and South Beach, Santa Monica - as well as images from beaches in West Cornwall, England. Included in the latter group are Gwithian Beach; Porthmeor Beach, St. Ives; and Holywell Beach, Newquay.

SHORT DESCRIPTION: Lithophane depicting the sinking of the French 74-gun ship-of-the-line Vengeur du Peuple on June 1, 1794 (during the battle called the Glorious First of June by the British). The scene was taken from a lithograph adapted from a painting by French artist Auguste Étienne François Mayer (1805-1890). The piece is stamped "PPM 220" which indicates it was made by the German firm Von Schierholz at the Plaue factory in Branderburg. PPM stands for Plaue Porzellanmanufaktur. The scene depicts a dismasted and sinking Vengeur du Peuple at the center, to the right is a mast with men clinging to it. There are two English vessels to either side, each with numerous shot holes in their sails. In the background are many vessel in battle. NOTES: The scene occurred during the battle known by the British and the Glorious First of June (1794). It occurred 400 miles west of Ushant in the open ocean between twenty-five British ships-of-the-line and twenty-six French ships-of-the-line. The two fleets spotted each other on the morning of May 28th and it began a three-day running skirmish that culminated in a massive engagement of single ship actions. The most memorable of these ship-on-ship actions occurred between the 74-gun ships HMS Barfleur and the French Vengeur du Peuple become entangled and began furiously pounding each other with cannon fire. Unable to open their gunports, the crew of the Barfleur actually fired double-shotted charges through their closed gunports into the decks of the Vengeur. Although Vengeur du Peuple eventually managed to break away from Barfleur, she was immediately engaged by other British ships who poured continual broadsides into the already heavily damaged vessel. With all her masts gone and water pouring in through numerous shot holes, Vengeur du Peuple had no choice but to surrender. The captain, Jean Francois Renaudin ordered the flags to half-mast to show surrender and distess, but no British ship was able to get any men on board to take possession of the vessel. Over the next few hours she sank, taking half of her crew (mostly wounded) with her. The British managed to send boats from the HMS Alfred, Culloden and the cutter Rattler to help evacuate the crew. Between them they managed to saved 367 French sailors (its estimated that 250 were killed during the battle and 106 drowned in the sinking). The sinking became a rallying point for the French, who glorified the action by saying the ship when down with flags waving and guns firing (which may have provided the impetus for Mayer to create his painting). NOTES: A lithophane is a panel of porcelain into which a picture is molded. The picture only becomes visible when light is transmitted through the panel. [Comments from Andy Cook, May 31, 2018] The naval battle scene is of the sinking of the Vengeur du Peuple (based on the original painting by Auguste Étienne François Mayer). I have the same lithophane from the Plaue/Schierholz. The same subject was produced earlier and in a larger size by KPM Berlin. ADDITIONAL INFORMATION: See "Antiques Magazine" for April 1936, page 146 for reference to Lithophanes. See "The History of Porcelain" edited by Paul Atterbury VESSEL INFORMATION: SHIP NAMES: (1) MARSEILLOIS (1762-1794); (2) VENGEUR DU PEUPLE (1794). VESSEL HISTORY: The Vengeur du Peuple ("Avenger of the People") was a 74-gun ship of the line of the French Navy launched in 1762. Originally offered by the city of Marseille, and named the Marseillois ("from Marseille"), she saw action during the American War of Independence. In 1778 she fought a single-ship action with HMS Preston, and in 1779 was with Admiral d'Estaing at the capture of Grenada. In 1781 she was at the battle of the Chesapeake with Admiral de Grasse, where she battled against HMS Intrepid. Re-named in 1794 by the French Republic, the Vengeur was part of the French fleet, under Admiral Villaret de Joyeuse, which fought the Third Battle of Ushant. Vengeur was sunk during the action.
