Life Framer ‘World Travellers Award’ Honorary Mention
Flatiron II received an Honorary Mention from Life Framer in their World Travellers award! Jury’s comment - “In Tom’s unashamedly brash photomontage we see the world’s modern landmarks compressed together – the Eiffel Tower, Statue of Liberty, Millennium Dome and the Burj Al Arab – alongside less recognizable architecture in a kaleidoscopic explosion of energy and color.
Building Constructs awarded 1st place at the Tokyo International Foto Awards
I am extremely pleased that my series Building Constructs has been awarded 1st place in the Architecture category at the Tokyo International Foto Awards. All the details of my winning entry and the 2020 exhibition at Shibuya Cultural Center in Tokyo, can be found here.
Artwork commission for Arts Heritage at University College London Hospitals
I have just completed a commission for Arts Heritage at University College London Hospitals and I am delighted that my images are now up in a building where so much amazing work gets done. It was a good experience to work on something for the hospital environment, with lots to take into consideration and some technical obstacles. I thought I would share some of the process, to give some insight into how the project progressed.
My 39 degree photography trip to Amsterdam and Rotterdam
I was heading over for just two nights to collect as many images as I could for upcoming works and projects. I usually seek out highrise architecture for my work, so I assumed that Amsterdam was going to offer some challenges, and demand a slightly new approach. It turns out that I had chosen to go on the hottest days of the year!
