Through the Lens of Thomas Prior

Thomas Prior’s photography could easily be described as effortless. In a series of images captured during his travels, Prior presents snapshots of landscapes, sceneries, events and people that seem as if we had seen them hundreds of times before. And yet, his attentive eye manages to transform what appears to be ordinary, normal or unremarkable in extraordinary narratives about our world. Here, a selection of photographs that range from blurry skies to human gestures, from urban landscapes to geometric grids, bring about his incredible capacity to tell stories through what most of us would often overlook.
