TOM CHAMBERS – 15 YEARS
2020-04-13Tom Chambers is a photographer best known for creating photomontages that move beyond documentation of the present and seek to merge reality and dreams. Chambers considers his photographs to be not so much about taking photos as making them. Each series begins with a sketch of a concept and storyline. He then photographs each element of the piece using a medium format camera, making sure the light intensity and direction are the same in each shot. By photographing separate elements and assembling them into montages enhanced with patina and warmth, Chambers creates scenes that evoke surreal fairytales.
