About this artwork
Close Together
The steel tanks rise closely together among houses and industry, like silent bodies in a landscape of metal and light. Sunlight shapes the surfaces through rich greys, while shadows and reflections give the forms weight and an almost human presence. Horizontal pipes interrupt the vertical lines, creating rhythm within the composition.
In the foreground, the pier and water provide a calm contrast to the industrial setting. The black-and-white… photograph enhances the sense of structure, light, and form, drawing the image away from the purely documentary and into a more contemplative space.
The title Close Together suggests something beyond the visible tanks: thoughts, memories, and human states existing side by side — close, yet separate.

Credentials
- Works on commission
Erik Stenbeck, a Norwegian photographer with a strong academic background in art history, creates evocative works in both black-and-white and color digital photography. He employs straight, unstaged techniques that capture the accidental beauty of fleeting moments, often exploring landscapes, architecture, people and the recurring motif of birds. His artistry invites viewers into a world of quiet reflection and existential inquiry, conveying emotions of stillness, mystery, and the profound but subtle connections between humanity and nature.
