“I’ve had this image in my mind for a couple of weeks, and I’m thrilled that I was able to execute it! Big thanks to the mister for assisting me, I wouldn’t have been able to make this image otherwise. I’m also pleased with the fact that this was my first time using my strobe setup outdoors, and, short of a near-mishap involving my light stand falling over, I think this came out pretty well. I’m really looking forward to what the rest of this…Read More »

This will not be the last time we will show you the works of Tommy…Read More »

Many of these people have worked in the same company for years. The series associates portraits with texts giving information on what they feel about their lives since they have been fired. “In this serie I make portraits of people which have been fired from their companies a while…Read More »

The design features a central platform surrounded by a ring of cells – thus enabling a clear view of every prisoner. Worldwide are about 25 panopticon-inspired prisons built,…Read More »
