LIFEGUARD STANDS MONTAUK 1

These photographs are part of an ongoing series documenting lifeguard towers across the US. Photographed in Montauk, NY, these images use long exposures and a minimalistic approach to place the focus on the lifeguard towers against expansive Atlantic waters, creating a sense of scale and tranquility.

All editions on ArtStar are produced to the highest industry standards. This is fine art, not a poster. We work exclusively with archival materials and acid-free cotton rag paper. Our high-end frames are hand assembled by professionals.

He earned a BFA in Graphic Design from California College of the Arts in 2002 and completed photography courses at International Center of Photography from 2006 to 2008. In 2022, Tommy released his first photobook, "Lifeguard Towers: Miami" published by Brooklyn-based Blurring Books, which is now in its second printing.
