Stephen Attong is a Trinidad-born, Toronto-based photographer (b.1994). His work explores the sentimentality in public spaces.  

From amusement parks to quiet moments with friends, hidden beneath playful colours and structures is deep contemplation of shared experiences. He intends to enable viewers to relate to, recall or imagine their own memories in his work. Often inspired by screenplays and cinema, Attong explores how these experiences, perspectives and ideas can co-exist through the common anchor of a still image.

In 2024, he received an Emerging Artist Award at Salon 44, Gallery 44's annual fundraising exhibition. Attong has exhibited in Canada and received support from the Ontario Arts Council.
