Isaac Images

Isaac Stackell creates photographs that are poignant, unusual and thought provoking. With crystal-clear focus and dramatic lighting we explore an inventive, Surrealist world of allegory and nuance. The natural elements of fire, wind and water, play an important role in his tableaus. Often employing aphorisms and catchy titles as a jumping off point, we discover figures sleeping buried within snow, a telephone pylon seen through a mysterious mist, and blood seeping from a grey, textured stone.

There is something remarkably fun and fresh about Isaac Images’ body of work, like exploring the world anew. Indeed he provides his audience with a wealth of surreal and touching experiences, significantly able to shift subject and approach. "Images have almost always been a revelation," he explains. "Wherever I am they flash into my brain." Isaac is caught in the moment and he is bringing us with him. The breadth of subjects is mirrored by a long, diverse career with film photography and digital manipulation. Isaac Stackell lives in Montclair, New Jersey.
