london based photographer tim walker seems to visit another world every time he composes a vision for his next shoot. his compelling images force the viewer to travel with him, to this world of pure perception, a world rich, alive, and full with the ability to evoke or re-voke the childhood fantasies and dreams we let escape us.
his talent serves as a vehicle of mystery, beauty and depth which takes us down a path into the emotions, the imagination, and the spirit from which his creativity generates.
he creates visions in which sublime and ineffable feelings have been accompanied by an experience of luminosity, as they move into the aesthetic, the dramatic, the comic, and the symbolic world of reality and the imagination as one.
his elaborate sets are the canvas into which he paints each narrative with the wonder and curiosity that has set him apart from most other photographers at least in my mind.
tim’s interest in photgraphy began during work experience at condé nast where he set up the Cecil Beaton archive. after graduating from exeter art college, he worked as a freelance photographic assistant before working as richard avedon’s assistant in new york.
his career as a photographer was launched when he came third in the independent young photographer of the year award. after coming in third, walker went on to contribute to high-profile magazines including Vogue, W and Harper‘s Bazaar as well as shotting advertising campaigns for clients including barneys, comme des garcons, gap and yohji yamamoto.
