When Summer Ends
Project Space Exhibition
Gina Hejdebäck, born 1999 in Stockholm, based in Malmö. She graduated from the Bergen Academy of Art and Design and the Glasgow Academy of Fine Art in 2024. Hejdebäck’s work includes drawing, painting, and collage, forming a multifaceted exploration of human connections and experiences. This is Gina's first presentation at Saskia Neuman Gallery's souterrain space.
Hejdebäck’s artistic practice is rooted in works on paper, where she incorporates watercolor and ink to build intricate layers of texture and form. Rather than relying on preparatory sketches, she integrates early marks directly into the final piece, allowing the work to evolve organically. Her process involves layering color and paper, resulting in a form of collage. Each piece stands on its own while also contributing to a larger, continuous narrative of painting and collage.
For Hejdebäck, the images she creates serve as a means to convey the complex moods and emotions that arise between people. Her works resemble scenes from a film — without a definitive beginning or end. Influences shaping her visual language include artists such as Tala Madani, Philip Guston, Ed Templeton, Margaret Kilgallen, William Kentridge, and Robert Crumb.
Gina's work will be presented in a group presentation with the gallery at CHART Art Fair 2025 in Copenhagen, Denmark.
The presentation by Gina Hejdebäck will be on view until the 28th of June
