Isaksson Garnell brings life to everyday inanimate objects mostly found in nature. He sculpts the objects to build an entirely new life form. During this point in his creative process, Isaksson introduces a scientific element to the object; a circuit with colorful wires emerging from the inside of a conch shell, electrical wires shooting from the body of a plump dark eggplant, nuts and bolts or a small network of electrical wires around bones or vegetables. The pieces manage to be simultaneously creepy and beautiful. It’s as though you have a front seat to the experiments of a creative scientist, and you feel these objects should be viewed in a lab, rather than as an image. As one views Isaksson’s work as a whole, you cannot help but notice that there is an “otherworldly” aspect to it. The end result is due to the expertly balanced mix of the psychadelic meeting science fiction/ naturalist meets scientist. His work can evoke a sort of “trippy” feeling, yet the artist’s restraint is what successfully seals each image as a masterpiece.
