Tom Hunter
Tom Hunter is an internationally acclaimed London-based photographer, best known for his work in and around Hackney.
In some ways you could compare Hunter's work with that of Stephen Gill - both document often derided or overlooked aspects of east London and both are concerned with portraying local specificity. But where Gills' work is intensely naturalistic, Hunter's is more staged, drawing upon a range of art historical references to produce images that, at best, are simultaneously both politicised and hauntingly beautiful.
