Hello, Tung Walsh!
And a warm, warm welcome to 2DM’s newest addition, making his official debut with the agency this month. A London boy from the get go, Tung is a globetrotter with a very particular vision of beauty.
His trajectory as a photographer began when he shot his favourite bands as a teenager, and toted his camera around from then on, going on to win a 2001 photo competition judged by Martin Parr, Elaine Constantine, Dennis Morris and Paul Smith (the photographer, not the designer). He was Jurgen Teller’s assistant for nearly a half-decade, leaving his mark on his monographs, exhibition and campaigns for YSL, Helmut Lang, Marc Jacobs and Puma.
Today he’s certainly making the rounds, working with big names from POP magazine and i-D to Elle and W, from Fred Perry to Dolce & Gabbana, and from Tilda Swinton to Cristiano Ronaldo. It seems that everyone adores Tung and his conceptual, well articulated, sometimes naughty and always sophisticated work.
Inspired by trips to the jungles (where he finds himself in the next few weeks), as well as life and general and its various perks, Tung is sure to be a fantastic new fratello in the 2DM family.
Group hug!
