Over the past few years, Wood has gained significant recognition, with Michael Grieve writing for The British Journal of Photography (April 2013):

"There can be no doubt that Wood is one of the most important, yet elusive and misunderstood, photographers in contemporary British and European photographic culture."

At the core of Wood's practice is what Barry Schwabsky described in his Artforum, December 2000 review of our Tom Wood exhibition The Bus Project, 1979-1996:
"What's immediately apparent ... is how much more fluid his approach is than the current conventions of post-Conceptual photography or photojournalism dictate. Eschewing the antithetical forms of simplification specific to programmatic typologies on the one hand and commodified empathy on the other, Wood's eye expresses itself through elaboration rather than encapsulation, expansion rather than condensation."
