Born in Huskvarna, Sweden in 1990, photographer Gabriel Isak received his first camera from his father. A small compact camera that he used to document life around him. Little did he know, this early gift would form his future and the way he would communicate with the world. Photography quickly turned into a passion where je would uses himself as the subject, creating art that would depict reality as he perceives it. Through his creative work, he expresses his vision of ‘being’ by creating surreal scenes with the use of digital techniques. His objective is to bring his experiences to life in a way that’s relatable to others. He is currently residing in San Francisco where he is pursuing his dream as a photographer at Academy of Art University. Between surrealism, minimalism and dark romanticism, he stages people hidden by hair, make-up, fabric and water. The result is gloomy while maintaining a mysterious and aesthetic outlook.
