Eric Hattan

He questions places, architectures and situations of all-day-life through breaking regularities and subversing the assumed stasis of the world with playful irony.

The rearrangement of clothing, furniture, pedestals or monitors plays a decisive role in his oeuvre, even became independent and exposes given situations to unbiased observation.

Hattan directs his gaze on processes and incidents in the urban space through his video camera.

During expeditions through cities and their peripheries he discovers a potential of plastic forms, which complete, comment or permeate his installative works since the 1990s.

Hattan's usually temporary projects in public space are evidence of an interest in inverting the view on the familiar.
