Isaac Haney-Owens doesn’t recall how he initially became interested in photography, but he does remember he’s been taking pictures since early childhood. Haney-Owens used a film camera for his first photographic practices, but has since switched over to a digital format because he enjoys the immediacy of seeing his images instantaneously. One of his projects involves recreating vintage signs as miniature dioramas.
In April of 2019, Haney-Owens was interviewed live on KGO radio. You can listen to the full interview online on the KGO website. A passionate spokesperson for CE and our artists, Haney-Owens has participated in a panel discussion about his diorama project with In/Visible Talks and spoken at several CE events.
He curated his first exhibition at the CE gallery in summer 2019, entitled Cityscape. Haney-Owens was one of the first artists to participate in CE's Artist Internship program, where he created content for CE's social media channels.
