“somewhere in between” is a merging of physical media with digitality. The work serves as the apotheosis of Sternberg’s 2023 experience in the Engadin region of Switzerland. This digital element seen here is one of four components of the work. The work’s entire medium is acrylic, watercolor, serpentine rock, wood, steel, a png file and a television and it measures 189.7 cm x 143.2 cm.

Sternberg’s ‘combines’ in general blur the lines between the earthly and the synthetic, between organic human composition and biomimicry. The digital art component is preserved as a marker and provenance archive for each work, whereas physically each 'combine' merges the painterly, sculptural and digital.
