Harry Wilks has been hauling his cameras up to New York City rooftops for 25 years. From this vantage point, he has created an urban fantasy land which diverges from observable reality. In his rooftop photographs, he reveals an urban landscape that people wouldn’t ordinarily see on their own. Complementing his passion for architecture is an ongoing project photographing the Hudson Valley. Wilks’ photographs are included in museum, corporate and private collections.

Harry Wilks is right handed and was born in New York City. He has a BA in art and design from City College of New York. He lives in the Chelsea section of Manhattan with his wife Tamar Zinn, a painter, and their son.
