About



      Tam Stockton (born 1997, Berkley CA) is an artist working with Photography. In 2019 he received a Bachelor of Fine Arts from Bard College where he studied photography and worked as an assistant for Barbara Ess. As of 2023, he is pursuing a Masters Degree at the Rhode Island School of Design in Providence, Rhode Island. Stockton’s work is often made in pursuit of the uncanny, using both physical and digital manipulation to invoke questions of tangibility and photographic representation. The work self-consciously tears at itself, both in its physical construction and in its ideology, with the intention of disrupting the viewer’s precarious presuppositions of photography.
