Working with sculpture, glass, and photography, Henrik Strömberg often merges the various media in overarching spatial installations developed to comprise the interaction between sculptural volumes, architectural vocabulary and the use of found objects and collected, reused materials.
Henrik Strömberg (SE, 1970) lives and works in Berlin. He holds an M.A. in Fine Art Photography and History of Photography from FAMU, Academy of Performing Arts Prague, Czech Republic and a BA in Fine Art from Camberwell College of Art, London, UK. Strömberg works across media, investigating his topics of interest by deconstructing and reconstructing the image and narratives in all of its declinations – from analog to digital, from sculptural to pictorial- and with overarching, large-scale spatial installations where photography, sculpture and painting develop around topics such as metamorphic changes, transformation, otherness and societal paradigms while comprising the interaction between sculptural volumes, architectural vocabulary and the use of object trouvée and repurposed materials. Strömberg – consecutively – exhibited institutionally in Sweden, U.K., Czech Republic, Germany, Italy, Poland, France, Switzerland, the Netherlands, Austria, Belgium, Scotland, Japan, USA, South Korea and Martinique.
