“Tracking Habits” by Arnaud Eubelen is now open at SIDE Gallery Barcelona. Our lives are written in the ordinary: a gesture repeated, an interface consulted, an object seized without really realizing it. Tracking Habits questions this invisible part of daily life—these automatisms, these intimate or imposed rhythms—that we call habits. One of the goals of these objects is to bring us back to a certain awareness of action and perception—whether achieved through ergonomics that are more or less constraining, through an aesthetic that departs from convention yet remains closely tied to the reality of our gestures or living place, through a visible manufacturing process, or through an intentional fragility. Arnaud Eubelen’s work is defined by his deliberate and thoughtful use of reclaimed urban materials, each carefully chosen to highlight the rugged, authentic spirit of the city. His material palette typically includes recycled metals, worn glass, discarded concrete, salvaged wood, and exposed electrical components. These elements not only embody the raw aesthetic of urban decay but also challenge traditional design values by embracing imperfections, wear, and history. Each material carries a story—sourced from construction sites, industrial waste, and abandoned city spaces—preserving the marks of their past. Through his process, Eubelen breathes new life into these fragments, transforming them into functional objects that resonate with the energy, entropy, and resilience of the urban landscape. His use of visible screws and bolts emphasizes construction transparency and invites viewers to witness the assembly and narrative behind each piece. In his hands, these overlooked and abandoned materials become a poetic testimony to urban resilience and resourcefulness. Tracking Habits prompts us to reconsider the unnoticed gestures and objects that shape our everyday lives and to rediscover the beauty in what is often discarded. 📸 @jeroenverrecht #sidegallery #contemporarydesign #arnaudeubelen #trackinghabits
