Eva Hild AMONGST @ Galleri Hammarén, Gothenburg 2026

The exhibition

Swedish sculptor Eva Hild opens AMONGST at Galleri Hammarén in Gothenburg on Saturday 14 November 2026. The exhibition presents her sculptures in ceramics alongside works in charcoal, ink and pencil on plasterboard — a part of her practice that has rarely been exhibited.

This is the first time Eva Hild is presented in a solo exhibition at a gallery in Gothenburg. Her work has previously been shown in the city at Röhsska museet and Göteborgs konstmuseum, including on the occasion of her receiving the Stena Foundation’s culture grant (Stenastiftelsens kulturstipendium) in 2003.

Form and line

Hild’s lines alternate between opening and enclosing, building an undulating, suggestive movement through the room. Some of her sculptures can read as living beings with eyes. The artist has described her work as a kind of portrait of different states.

The clarity of the work, Hild’s distinctive sense of form and the elegance of her sculptures have led to numerous public commissions around the world.
