Her ongoing project Andie, Darling, developed during her time at ICP, has been exhibited at Paris Photo, the PhotoVogue Festival in Milan, and Shared Spaces at the International Center of Photography, New York.
In 2023, Hammarén presented solo exhibitions at Studio Tabac in Stockholm and Ex Nihilo in Copenhagen, exhibiting chapters of her project SHY.
