Joakim Eneroth is an internationally established multi-disciplinary artist based in Stockholm, Sweden. His art works are represented in international collections and at prominent institutions such as Tate Modern in London, Brooklyn Museum in New York, MEP in Paris, Moderna Museet in Stockholm, Dallas Museum of Art, Houston Museum of Fine Arts, Deichtorhallen (House of Photography) in Hamburg and Göteborgs Konstmuseum among others. He has produced several art books, which have been published by Steidl (Göttingen), PowerHouse Books (New York) and Arvinius + Orfeus (Stockholm).
In recent years, his artwork has revolved around environmental themes, where the ideas materialize in various ways throughout the artistic process. In his latest exhibition, Equilibrium, the theme revolves around the question: What would a parallel reality look like where we have chosen to live in harmony with nature’s striving for balance and equilibrium?
The aim of Eneroth´s earlier art work has often been to reveal more and more of the subconscious layers of the human experience, beneath the dance of notions and perceptions of the fluctuating mind. The questions has revolved around how to distinguish mental projections from reality itself. With each new series the artist have explored another aspect of consciousness and the boundaries where our inner and outer worlds meet.
