"Strambukken" is an acrylic painting that depicts the weathered remnants of a strambukk, an essential structure used to tension the cable for a copper mine cable car at Storwartz copper mine in Røros, Norway. This abandoned relic from the mining industry stands proudly in a desolate landscape, serving as a powerful symbol of a bygone industrial era. The artwork invites us to contemplate the endurance of this structure, mirroring the resilience of the people who once toiled in these mines, and the enduring legacy they left behind.

This acrylic painting measures 150x100 cm.
