ABOUT THE SPONGLEHEIM
The Spongleheim is a not-for-profit online gallery that specialises in showcasing works in the genres of outsider art, art brut, folk art, naive art and other forms of self-taught artistry.  The gallery deliberately eschews the abundance and convenience of online exhibitions and adopts the constraints a physical, independent gallery would experience. Four exhibitions take place per year to allow for "take-down" and "hanging" with each exhibition only having hanging space for just 21 exhibits.
