Arnaud Eubelen (b. 1991 in Liège) is a Belgian artist based in Brussels.
Arnaud Eubelen bridges sculpture and design, questioning assumptions that lead from concepts to objects by reappropriating and reevaluating the various industrial building blocks of our world, shifting their use and context to highlight their intrinsic qualities and values. Rewiring and rewriting the urban context around us through different layers of materials with their own history and life, he considers the streets of the artificial world we live in as hardware stores or a «material library» as he calls it. Through the sculptural action of decomposing and reassembling salvaged materials, fragments, waste, rubble, and scraps, he brings to light the chaotic energy, the entropy, of the urban mutations that surround us. These objects keep the potentiality of a use, but first and foremost an ephemeral state, a present time simply frozen by a few nuts, before its future dissolution.
