EYES ON WILSON
CROWDFUNDING
Photo Cover : Rodrigo Paredes
Wilson is a small town in the interior of North Carolina that is becoming increasingly important in the world of photography.
A few months ago, the tenth edition of the Eyes On Main Street festival was held there.
Also there in spring 2024, the residency program has been concluded, in which 67 international photographers have participated in the last 7 years.
Behind all this is Jerome De Perlinghi who years ago put Wilson on the map of the photographic world by deciding to organize all this.
The book “EYES ON WILSON” is the summary of the experience of the photographers who have participated in the residency program.
At this point I have to tell you that I have been one of those 67 photographers.
I have spent the entire month of October 2023 in Wilson and if I am now here sharing all this information with you it is because it has been an important experience that has allowed me to evolve as a photographer and as a person.
The book will be a fundamental document of Wilson’s recent history and is also an extraordinary collection of images that represents the present of a small town in the interior of the United States.
You can participate in the crowdfunding for the publication of “EYES ON WILSON” with about 400 images by clicking HERE.
