Through the work of leading photographers, designers and filmmakers, No Comply celebrates the country’s vibrant and diverse skateboarding scene, documenting the transformative influence the subculture has played in shaping people, cities and culture in the UK, and beyond.
With film and video playing a key role in enabling skaters to document their local scenes, the exhibition features four new film commissions documenting the community, its spirit, and the spaces which skaters occupy.
Visitors are invited to embrace the freedoms and joys of riding a skateboard with a new short film No Comply from London-based director Dan Emmerson, explore diverse skate communities in a new short by skate videographer Sirus f Gahan and Helena Long, as well as experience the friendships and bonds the activity brings with filmmaker Dan Magee.
