Being Alone With Others

Being Alone With Others is a series of photographs taken between 2004 and 2024 by the photographer and artist Joakim Eneroth. The photographs depict public places such as beaches, ski slopes, parking lots, and parks – places where we all are part of a collective, although we still remain anonymous andseparated. The documented situations are like quiet meditations on the complex sensation of wanting to experience a sense of belonging, whilst still maintaining a distance. The series can also be seen as a contemplation of the sense of always being alone in our own personal experience of life. The photographs are taken with a tilted large format camera in India, Sweden, United Kingdom, and the United States.
