"In my art, composition and color are at the center. The method is intuitive and free, and creation is based on a vision of color and forms that inspire me at the moment."
Get to know Jimmy Ralsmark
Jimmy Ralsmark's art is a direct result of his passionate interest in color and dramatic composition. His paintings are created intuitively but require a careful work process. The combination of spontaneity and detailed planning allows for chance but also for corrections until the final artwork feels perfected.
His art is characterized by gestural brushstrokes and acrylic treatments, which create depth and tension as the layers are slowly built up. Subtle charcoal marks are later added to the painting to create harmony and balance the composition.
"Harmony and imbalance interact on the canvas, creating exciting contrasts. A mistake turns into a 'happy accident,' and the painting takes a new turn. No painting is like the other, and it is this process within abstract expressionism that appeals to me."

Our Story
Tomas and Mimmi Hammar
Gallery Hammar was founded in 2023 by the artist couple Tomas and Mimmi Hammar, who had long shared a dream of owning their own gallery where they could exhibit their art together.
The idea of establishing an art gallery in Vasastan was born as early as 2017 when Tomas was at the beginning of his artistic journey. After the impact of the pandemic, the goal became even clearer. In May 2023, Gallery Hammar opened its doors at Rörstrandsgatan 28 and currently represents around 20 artists and sculptors.
At Gallery Hammar, we offer a wide variety of Scandinavian art from both established artists and new talents whose works touch, challenge, and inspire. Our vision is to promote an innovative, inclusive, unconventional, and accessible space for both artists and customers. We constantly strive to provide a unique, modern, and relaxed environment where exciting encounters, interesting conversations, and lasting relationships contribute to a sense of community for all visitors.
Before embarking on their artistic careers, Tomas and Mimmi pursued different paths—Tomas dedicated over 20 years to photography and TV production, while Mimmi worked in HR for almost 10 years. Their diverse backgrounds have been of great benefit in the joint professional journey they have undertaken, often reflected in their roles as both artists and gallery owners.
