EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from September 1962, we are transported back to a time of youthful rebellion and alternative lifestyles. The image captures a group of young "beachniks" who have chosen to make their home on a barge in Shoreham-by-Sea. These adventurous souls have embarked on an experiment of collective living, striving for self-sufficiency and freedom from societal norms. The two individuals pictured in the photograph are seen diligently chopping wood on the deck of their floating abode. Their focused expressions reveal determination and resilience as they work together to sustain their unique way of life. It is evident that these young beachniks possess a strong sense of camaraderie and shared purpose. This snapshot encapsulates the spirit of the 1960s, when counterculture movements were challenging traditional values and seeking new forms of expression. Led by figures like Barry Fogarty and David Jefferson, these beachniks embody the essence of nonconformity, rejecting mainstream ideals in favor of forging their own path. Harry Fox's skillful capture allows us to glimpse into this fascinating subculture that thrived along the shores of West Sussex during this transformative era. As we gaze upon this evocative scene frozen in time, we can't help but be inspired by the audacity and courage displayed by these young pioneers who dared to live differently.
