Yes. Open GIMP; also if you cannot access e.g. Desktop files with the File → Open dialog, you can drag a
Desktop file icon to the GIMP window to open it.
This is a fault of the GIMP (GTK?) File → Open dialog; in MacOS, if you try to access a “protected" directory
(Downloads, Documents, Desktop, …) a requester *should* *open*, asking if you want to give your program full
disk access, and transferring you to System Preferences → Security & Privacy when answering “OK”. Please,
change this behaviour.

is hard to believe that GIMP MacOS team didn’t notice anything
before.
The “GIMP MacOS team” is a couple of volunteers in their spare time.
Would you like to help out?
