Cardiff Kook, Encinitas
Cardiff Kook, EncinitasMagic Carpet Ride is the official name of a 6-foot (1.8 m) high bronze sculpture of a surfer by Matthew Antichevich, an Encinitas, California artist, teacher and surfer. The sculpture is mounted on a 6-foot high granite base with poetry inscription by Robert Nanninga, and is in Cardiff-by-the-Sea, Encinitas, California, United States. Locals have nicknamed Magic Carpet Ride as The Cardiff Kook, a pejorative name popularized by the local surfing community. The sculpture was commissioned by the Cardiff Botanical Society at a cost of approximately $120,000. Installed in 2007, it stands by the side of the Coast Highway 101, next to the San Elijo State Beach campground. The $92,000 construction cost was raised by the Botanical Society, with the $30,000 installation funded by the city of Encinitas. The sculpture's base also includes plaques listing names of the project's major donors. Magic Carpet Ride/The Cardiff Kook is registered and archived by Public Art in Public Places Project. The sculpture was intended to depict a surfer performing a "(backside) floater", but the Botanical Society's budget could not cover the cost of an additional water/wave component. Antichevich was chosen from more than 50 bidders on the commission. His original design was for a female surfer on a breaking wave, which also exceeded the budget, and the Botanical Society chose an image of a male surfer on a granite plinth that halved the amount of required bronze. Other proposed designs that were discussed with the Botanical Society included the figure of professional surfer Rob Machado and a surfer on a longboard. According to Antichevich and to Michael Ames Clark (then-chairman of the Botanical Society's selection committee), the sculpture represents the joy and awkwardness of a young boy learning how to surf, in acknowledgement of the area's attraction to novice surfers.
