He studied at Hammersmith School of Art, Saint Martins School of Art in London, and earned his BA in Fine Arts from Liverpool Polytechnic (now John Moores University) in 1980. ?Between 1982 and 2002, Hadjipateras lived and worked in New York City, where he engaged in numerous site-specific installations in galleries and public spaces across Europe and the U.S.

Hadjipateras's art is characterized by a fusion of organic and geometric forms, often reflecting themes of nature, technology, and the human condition. He therefore anticipates that the 2025 Amalia Gardens Residency, taking place on the island of Andros, will provide an ideal setting for inspired and focused artistic research and creation.
