Photographer/ Contributor to Try State Magazine, Issue Three:
Jim Wilkinson
Jim's new book, Naked Truth is a fantastic selection of portraits exposing the physical body and soul. These beautifully shot images is an intimate display of men's truths, something that each one of can relate to on some level.
"Jim Wilkinson's new project Naked Truth is a fantastic collection of portraits which captures the models' affect, emotion and soul both figuratively and literally. Jim has taken storytelling through imagery to a new level by exposing truths and allowing us to take a peek inside each model's most intimate thoughts. His unique and creative approach to portrait photography is refreshing and provoking. You can feel the trust and confidence with each model in this amazing series" Robert Greco
“Vulnerable and authentic are words that come to mind when I reflect on Jim’s work. As I look at the portraits I find myself guilty. Yes, guilty of making assumptions. Of blinking and assuming I know someone because I've seen them. Really, do I really see the unique 'them' hidden under layers of clothes and safety masks? Jim's work reminds me of the sacred story within each human being and it reminds me of how valuable every human being is. His photographs unmask the truth within his subjects. Each human being, body unique, each story absolutely captivating. Jim's photography, his editorial vantage point reminds us that our life experiences, beliefs and fears are written on our hearts, souls and minds. Thank you Jim- for reminding me that we are all much more than we appear. You have captured the beauty of the human spirit”.
