INTO THE WONDERLAND : How can architecture take part in the creation of new radical structured performances?

In Stockholm, an empty station echoes the sounds of passing trains. Built in 1977 but unused since. Imagine this station transformed into a wonderland, where the absence of a surrounding locality becomes an asset. Envision a performance center where the daily rhythm of train arrivals and departures is integrated into performance art. Stepping off the train, visitors enter an interactive realm, breaking the barriers between audience and performer, observer and participant. This transformation aims to challenge the status quo, encouraging visitors to shape their own narratives rather than passively consuming culture. The design consists of three interwoven levels. The platform where one arrives where a curtain system has been designed. Allowing fordifferent temporary rooms to be coordinated following an overall geometry. The upper ground consists of a landscape design where topography curves have been used tocreate different types of scenes. Allowing for multiple interpretations, movements andhappenings in the inbetween. The third level are studios where either the artists can seek refuge, use it as backstage ordevelop their art, or as a room for performances to happen as well where the public is invited.
