DUO SHOW 3 / Wunderbaum)

Private View - Friday 7th August, 6pm 

Exhibition:  8th – 22nd August 2026    

EUCA Annex is proud to present new work by Tommy Støckel and Paul McDevitt in the third of a series of two person shows.

For the third Duo Show Berlin-based artists Paul McDevitt and Tommy Støckel have worked collaboratively on a new series of sound sculptures. Each piece references a variety of everyday elements, including air fresheners, doorbells, key-rings, and bird decals from bus-stop windows. These are brought together in a series of objects that mimic an arboretum. Several of the sculptures have speakers built into them, through which can be heard compositions based on studio experiments and field recordings.  

The exhibition follows previous joint projects by the artists where elements of sculpture and design are playfully blended together. These have included a fashion show of wearable sculptures, and a range of jewellery made for plants. 

Paul McDevitt was born in Scotland, and educated at Chelsea College of Art and Design. He is currently professor for drawing and printmaking at Burg Giebichenstein University of Art and Design, Halle, Germany. His practise is focussed primarily on drawing and print, as well as a series of ongoing collaborations with other artists. Since 2011 he has been co-publishing books and records as Infinite Greyscale. In 2015 he founded Farbvision, an interdisciplinary project space that operates from his Berlin studio. This year he has exhibited at the Kunstverein-am-Rosa-Luxemburg-Platz, Berlin, and Martin Asbæk Gallery, Copenhagen.

Tommy Støckel’s projects draw inspiration from everyday objects, spaces and situations as well as from found digital material. These are meticulously reworked and transformed into artworks in a wide range of media, including site-specific installations, sculptures, photographs, typefaces, emojis and various digital formats. 

Støckel was born in Copenhagen, and studied at the Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts. He has had solo exhibitions at Frankfurter Kunstverein, Frankfurt am Main; Nikolaj Kunsthal, Copenhagen and Arnolfini, Bristol. His work has also been shown in The Atlantic Project, Plymouth; Eastside Projects, Birmingham; CAPC, Bordeaux; Tensta Konsthall, Stockholm and the Gwangju Biennale.

About the Duo Show series 

This curatorial programme invites a creative dialogue between pairs of artists, an evolving process of overlapping exhibitions will see EUCA Annex’s Britannia Row space transformed. 

The programme's ambitious sequential structure reimagines the conditions of display and how practice is performed in exhibitionary contexts, with others (co-exhibitors), and through material encounters; objects, structure and technology. The series will include a wide range of artists with different practices and approaches to the production and display of art, each pairing will both encounter and leave traces of their presence as the chain of exhibitions extends throughout 2026
