Stuart Leech is an artist based in Margate, UK. His work utilises photography combined with research to explore political and social issues often discussed but not often visualised. He studied photography at the University of Portsmouth before embarking on a career as a freelance photographer and now dedicates his time to long-term projects.

In August 2022 he was selected as one of 100 emerging Europeans to watch by Gup Magazine.
