Tucker Hollingsworth Explained

Tucker Hollingsworth (born 1984, Boston) is an American photographer primarily known for his conceptual-based projects that engage questions of self-consciousness,^[1] distortion, and attention. His photography has been described as "unusually poetic"^[2] and blends aesthetic playfulness and technical curiosity.^[3] Stylistically, many images are defined by high-keyed, jewel-tone colors^[4] and range from semi-representational landscapes to the highly abstract, textured noise images.
