Tove Tengå
Tove Tengå, born in 1984, currently resides in Stockholm, Sweden. Clay is her primary medium, and she constantly experiments to develop her own techniques.
Graphic design, illustrations, and patterns inspire Tove. Her work is primarily abstract, allowing viewers to interpret freely, yet holds deeper meanings upon closer inspection.
Since 2016, Tove has been creating her signature sculpture 'The Knot' in various sizes, colors, and patterns. The knot symbolizes the strong bonds we have in relationships—between mother and son, between nations or religions, and to our origins: nature. Bonds that are incredibly difficult to break.

Our Story
TOMAS OCH 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.
