“I first saw Chris Isner’s astounding sculptures on a post in Facebook. I was instantly fascinated by his work. At once it is dark, monstrous, a deep exploration of a tortured Id; and at once mythic, beautiful, transcendent, and a triumph of human potential. I’d like to say Chris’s work is like some great artist of the past but that is not possible. It is unique, fascinating, timeless. The forms and faces appear to grow out of the wood he so expertly carves, revealing the monsters and gods hidden to the unawakened eye. I am the proud owner of several of Chris’s pieces and I look forward to adding more to my collection. Hafiz says that “True art makes the divine silence in the soul break into applause.” This is most true with Chris’s amazing work.”
