View through Artsy
In Under the Volcano, Isaacs time travels. The title is a direct reference to Mount Vesuvius, however it is taken from Malcolm Lowry’s iconic 1947 homonymous novel set in Mexico. While visiting Pompeii in 2023 Isaacs discovered another format to produce objective, abstract imagery in the ruins of the ancient Roman city.
