Born and raised in the heart of the Ashdown Forest, UK, Tom D Morgan moved to London as a young adult, where he began working in the music industry and went on to establish himself as a commercial photographer. Tom's work has been featured in publications such as Huck Magazine and The Guardian, and his commercial practice TDM. Space has seen him collaborate with clients such as Burberry, Nike and Chanel. His photographic series, conceived in Kyoto’s Imperial Palace gardens during autumn 2024, abstracts Japanese maple trees through light, colour and in-camera techniques, reflecting komorebi and mono no aware as a meditation on impermanence and transformation.
