Artist Talk:
Photographer Tom Rankin

Join American photographer Tom Rankin for an informal conversation at An Tobar, where he'll speak about his practice, his Mull piping roots, and the work he’s been developing on Mull with KNOCKvologan. 

Tom Rankin is a photographic (sometimes film) artist based in North Carolina in the US where he teaches and directs the MFA Program in Experimental and Documentary Arts at Duke University. He photographs primarily with a 8 x 10 view camera, mostly but not exclusively in black and white. One of Tom’s ancestors initiated the Rankin Piping school at Kilbreanan. During his residency Tom will focus on this family history, but also on visible intersections of traditional culture and the natural world, farming and fishing, water and land use. 

All welcome. No booking required.
