Tom Gifford
Originally from Leamington Spa, Tom studied Art & Visual Culture at UWE, Bristol in the late 90s, before becoming a graphic designer. In 2009, a chance purchase of an old 35mm Agfa half-frame camera from a charity shop reignited a passion for photography.
Tom's photographic work is influenced by his art education and his years working in graphic design. Predominantly based in urban landscapes, Tom's work often features bold geometrical and graphical compositions.
