Hadrien Gérenton (Fr, 1987) graduated from De Ateliers in 2017 and lives and works between Brussels and Rotterdam. His work has recently been shown at Galerie Martin Van Zomeren (Amsterdam, 2018), Lustwarande (Tilburg, 2019) and Emerige Mecanat (Paris, 2021). In the text for his graduation show at De Ateliers (Deep State, 2017), he is described as an artist whose works “play with notions of verisimilitude and casting, natural and artificial material, replica and found object”. The sculptures Gerenton produced for his upcoming show look and feel as if they’ve grown by themselves; they look alive and aware, born in a chemical post-human nature.
