The Royal Danish Embassy has invited the young Danish artist Tommy Støckel to create an installation especially for the terrace of the Felleshus / Pan Nordic Building of the Nordic Embassies.

Støckel’s installation WHEN PASTS AND FUTURES MEET will spread outward bit by bit over the terrace in an organic process. In the course of the next few weeks a system of silver-grey styropore components, reminiscent of a wall or a prehistoric stone monument, will subdivide the terrace into new fictitious spaces.

Tommy Støckel has a predilection for things pretending to be something else. Thus, there is special significance in the fact that the wall is not made of stone but rather of insulation material, which makes the wall seem like a film set of a low-budget science fiction movie.
