Dan Stockholm

Dan Stockholm (b. 1982, Thisted, Denmark), Lives and works in Sorø, Denmark.

Stockholm makes use of sculpture as an interface, link, or passage through which places and bodies – across temporal as well as spatial distances – are set in relation to each other. Fascinated by places, sites and architecture with an innate historical significance and narrative tension, Stockholm practices a “creative archaeology”, which includes field research and work with various finds. His work evolves from what he calls “performative process, ” a method that turns his works into vessels which carries the story of their own making.

Stockholm’s work is about the transformation of his materials of predilection into apparatuses of storage, transmission and reception. Stockholm’s practice oscillates between the desire to conceal and disclose. His work shifts between inside and outside, negative and positive spaces while pointing simultaneously to natural occurrences and human intervention, to life and death, to the past and the future. Stockholm (re)constructs a visual landscape that is site specific and yet one with the planet and its histories – creating a human trace that is at once intimate and resolutely universal.
