Nature Meets Technology in the Photography of Henrik Isaksson Garnell

— September 7, 2010 — Art & Design
Swedish photographer Henrik Isaksson Garnell captures images that mix science and nature. Colourful wires emerge from a conch shell and bones and vegetables grow electrical sockets and wiring. The manipulated images make the 23-year-old part artist, part mad scientist.


The trippy images Henrik Isaksson Garnell produces are described by the artist as “nature meets technology.” A professionally trained photographer, Garnell has worked with art photographer DAWID as well as in the world of fashion photography.
