The Surf Board Installation by Fandango Projects , titled ‘I was a teenager in the…’ takes on a historical tour or youth and surf culture. The exhibit was done for Quicksilver and it recreates teenagers rooms throughout the ages. Installed last week, it is no coincidence the [skateboarding phenom Tony Hawk](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/new-psychedelia) also had a show at the same time.
