We present
HEMMA / HOME
HEMMA is taking shape.
What happens when the things we use every day without giving them a second thought become works of art?
Food, brushing our teeth, what’s hiding at the back of the pantry?
We take everyday life for granted. It is our life, unfolding through different stages. What is ordinary today becomes the memories of tomorrow.

Upcoming exhibitions

Opening of Linda Spåman's Major Arcana Fanzine exhibition. Come and draw your own fate
Thursday 24 September
The artist and comic artist Moa Romanova enters the world of games. Together with game developer Elvira Mattsson, she has created the interactive fanzine game A Walk Through Kramfors, which will be released as an app ahead of the Gothenburg Book Fair. Described as “Twin Peaks meets Game Boy meets point-and-click,” the project is planned to develop into a full-scale game over the coming years.
Alexandra Dahlberg, author and game developer, leads a conversation about the making of the game, the relationship between art and games, and what happens when these two worlds meet.

About
the Gallery
Syntropia Art Space is an unfunded, artist-run space founded and run by Anna Maria Hedman working with invited artists.
All exhibitions, performances, and public programmes are curated by Hedman and developed through long-term thinking, dialogue, and shared responsibility.
Syntropia Art Space does not charge artists to participate. Instead, it operates on a commission-based model, taking a percentage of sales to support the ongoing work of the space.
We are always open to new artists and ideas — don’t hesitate to get in touch.
Syntropia Art Space was built on two simple principles: inspired by a sentence overheard from curator Bettina Køppe, “I do not work with assholes,” and a commitment to working from vulnerability.
Syntropia Art Space does not operate as a rental gallery. Artists cannot hire the space, but are welcome to submit a portfolio, project proposal, or ideas for collaboration.
Proposals are carefully considered, though not all can be realised. Selection and prioritisation are active and necessary parts of the practice.
The space is a non-funded, art- and culture-led initiative that has operated since 2024, with a focus on so-called outsider art.
It provides a context for both emerging and established artists to work through process, experimentation, and public exchange, rather than rapid production or constant output.
The programme includes exhibitions, performances, book launches, music events, as well as curated dinners and conversations. The work is cross-disciplinary and shaped by a commitment to clear frameworks, artistic integrity, and the recognition of artistic labour as labour.
Syntropia Art Space operates within shifting and often temporary conditions, exploring how artistic practice can be sustained across changing sites and formats
