Thomas Allen


“Red,” 2002, by Thomas Allen.

Minnesota artist Thomas Allen’s photographs are inspired by his childhood experiences with pop-up books and viewmaster reels. He cuts two-dimensional figures and images out of old books, and combines them with vintage pulp fiction novels, to create three-dimensional scenes.
“Swell,” 2004

Once he's formed the 3D art, Thomas reinvents them again as two-dimensional in his lively photos.
