« Creating fictional landscapes allows me to ignore the constraints of possibility and logic. »
Tom Leighton is an accomplished British photographer and printmaker whose works are featured in prominent collections around the world, including France's MUCEM and the Victoria and Albert Museum in the UK. Fascinated by the urban environment, he has photographed and worked with iconic and hidden architecture world-wide. Leighton expertly manipulates images to allow us to imagine alternative cities of the present and the future. He seeks beauty in everything, from functional buildings to the most ornate architecture, and repeats motifs in unexpected places. Leighton ultimately asks us to reconsider our cities, what they are and what they might become.
