Bio — Michael Togher-Prescott

Michael Togher-Prescott
Photographer // Artist

Michael Togher-Prescott is a photographer and artist, based between Berkshire and Surrey, studying for their BA (Hons) in Photography from UCA Farnham. In the past they have exhibited their work at the Espacio Gallery (2023) and the National Portrait Gallery (2024); with the latter also including a Q&A panel discussion.

Togher-Prescott’s practice is largely analogue-technology based, shooting and printing through analogue methodologies, using both medium-format and 35mm for their photographs. Their projects are usually oriented around identity, with a particular focus on Queer experiences – derived from their own sexual identity as a Queer man. This includes the photobook Seen (2023), a small collection of studio portraits with accompanying interviews, as-well as Antollini (2024) which aimed to showcase an example of non-physical intimacy in contemporary queer relationships.
