About

the Gallery

rectangle 228

Syntropia Art Space is run by artist Anna Maria Hedman.

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 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 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.

Working principles
Syntropia Art Space is founded on the conviction that artistic practice requires clear boundaries in order to be sustainable over time.
The gallery is not driven by constant growth or a high pace of production, but by carefully selected projects in which form, responsibility and resources are held in balance. The practice is shaped by an attention to form: creating a context that holds, rather than absorbs.
Work at Syntropia Art Space takes place within clearly defined and shared conditions, grounded in mutual respect for artistic labour.
Within these boundaries, Syntropia Art Space approaches partnerships and collaborations with care, mutual respect, and a clear ethical position — fondly attributed to craft curator Bettina Køppe as “I do not work with assholes.”
By refraining from projects that rely on unpaid or boundless labour, conditions are actively created for artistic depth and long-term viability.
