red-painted tool shed in the archipelago,
houses a miniature art gallery, fully equipped with two video screens and a sound system to so
und system to simultaneously play several audio artworks. There is also space to hang paintings/photography and sculpture. The gallery opened the summer of 2016. Since then, we have had eight openings with
