Tucker Hollingsworth (born 1984, Boston) is an American photographer primarily known for his conceptual-based projects that engage questions of self-consciousness, distortion, and attention. His photography has been described as "unusually poetic" and blends aesthetic playfulness and technical curiosity. Stylistically, many images are defined by high-keyed, jewel-tone colors and range from semi-representational landscapes to the highly abstract, textured noise images.
