Harold Lechien

Harold Lechien (1995) is a Belgian multidisciplinary artist who lives and works in Brussels. Harold Lechien transforms and distorts the images and objects of industrial commerce through plastic production and the prism of new media, questioning the commodity fetishism that drives modern consumers. Regularly exhibited in Belgium and abroad since 2018 (ISELP - Bruxelles, CWB - Paris, DMW Gallery - Anvers etc.), his work takes a singular look at the circulation of emotions that emerge in the context of the production and affective reception of industrial images and products. Harold Lechien's works reveal a permanent ambiguity between the human being and his visual and material environment. Halfway between sculpture, design and commercial scenography, his work unfolds through object, image and video in polymorphous, modular installations, where marketing strategy and contemporary creation meet.
